That's literally what Ion said
He wants to add a system like that in the future
But not in 9.1
also it might be more about changing stat than complete refund
but tbh we dont really need a full refund.. just allow us to change the base basicly
base + stat. thats probly the same coding anyways
Lashing Scars for all content as Venthyr.
Pretty happy with mfd (artificer m there) ❤️ (but i got pi on vendetta, so my soul isnt worthy)
I think the new venthyr leggo will sync very well with that build, because of EP plus mfd on every flag, but i will test it when the time comes (doomblade still too good :( )
Was wondering which legendary I should craft for my first legendary
Doomblade for raid, Zoldyck>MA for m+ (Zold isn't useless for raiding)
Okay, thanks
Haste and crit for leggos i believe
the new fae leggo, what does it mean "Your ability used from stealth" is it talking about sepsis?
OOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOH
it's referring to that one
gotcha
I thought it was saying using sepsis on a target with spesis on it gave the buff
which I figured was wrong which is why I was confused
the tooltip is a bit weird
still seems wack
I like fae for the aesthetics, but necro is looking better and better
venthyr or 👉 🚪
Necro bois 4ever
lmao
thats why I don't want to swap from Fae. I like the feel of the zone all that. Sepsis itself is kinda meh
I like SBS charges for fitting more cp into a shiv window
I've also grown to really use soulshape a lot
I mean, its a minor thing that I would just get used to again
soulshape is a big thing
Soulshape is the only reason to be Fae tbh
probably the best feature of NF
ngl, getting rooted then soulshape blink -> envenom kill in pvp feels so good
Yes, i swaped from NF to 🦇 on sire progress and u have WAY LESS movility, its a harder fight without soulshape, but u get used to it (and the dps gain is huge)
its not to bad, you still have sprint/shadow step. as long as you move wisely you should be fine
you also have door
hey guys, I am having trouble understanding when to use the MA Talent + Vanish in raid fights. I understood I used it during Vendetta for obvious reasons, but is there any sort of crit snapshotting when I apply dots during the MA window that I should use... or should I just use that window for direct dmg with mutilate and envenoms?
save vanish for shiv
but dont waste a use waiting for vanish to come off CD
you mean shiv + vendetta right?
No, you want to use shiv with vanish
Why?
mut > snd > mut > gar > vendetta flag > rupture > shiv > vanish > mut > env > mut
Extra nature damage + the crit from MA
im sure someone else can explain better but yeah
You generally only want to use Mutilates/Envenoms during your Vanish window. There is no snapshotting to do whatsoever with MA.
Only thing that snapshots for rogues AFAIK is nightstalker with rupture/CT
Technically both Exsanguinate and Subterfuge do as well.
Ah yea those too
Ye, my bad for wording that wrong. Shiv before vanishing.
ohhh, ok, now it makes sense yes
this is why Cev is here lmao
how are you fitting that GAR there without subt?
That garrote is not in the MA window anymore. It's just a regular garrote
Don't need to be stealthed to garrote
If that's what you mean.
Never
You have always been able to use garrote outside of stealth
last time I played my rogue was.... 10 years ago
nah
i TBC or lich king you needed stealth
no?
was I always that dumb
geez
I need to review all ym binds
rofl
Yeah no sorry, I was just exaggerating
But yeah, that's how Garrote has been for 5+ years now
I think it changed in 7.0
ok
damn
I feel so stupid
how about flagellation, is it worth delaying 30 secs for sync with vendetta?
i wouldnt, but that also depends if you would lose a cast of it. ( i think? )
i just use it on CD
ok
Hey guys, is anyone experienced here with assa in 3v3? to be more specific, is it possible to gain decent rating with assa with enha and hpal? thanks
why do you rupture AFTER vendetta and not before?
I understand Vendetta doesn't affect rupture application with snapshotting
So I'd rather have an ongoing rupture on the target
and use the Vendetta wiundow for more envenoms
yeah, that is clear
hello #assassination I recently got poisoned irl (covid vaccine, stacks to 2) and I was informed that thistle tea could help but it’s sharing a cd with my health pot (NyQuil) any ideas
How long should a reapplying rupture last for it to be more effective than envenom?m+
15 secs
You mean on a low hp mob while there are others that will live longer? or you mean on that last sec few sec of a boss?
You reapply Ruptue only if the target lives for 15 secs
Otherwise, you always reapply it in your pandemic window
At how many mob count does CT spam become more effective than envenom?
Assuming you still maintain your other 5-7 poisons on other mobs
u dont CT spam anymore i'm pretty sure
u keep it up to as close as 100% uptime u can in any target count
Finally got 220 IQD. Gonna try it a bit compared to Skulker's. Anyone got the weakaura for predicting the effects?
heres a sample opener from a ST shriekwing fight
the main point about the rupture timing is that you are rupturing after flag, and you are syncing flag with vendetta, as soon as you hit max cp, as early as possible
you can use vendetta before or after the rupture. Just make sure you don't have too much energy when you pop it so you miss the increased energy at the start
The bot doesn't no
ah okok
Bot does Mut > SND > Mut > Garr > Flag > Rupt > Vend > etc
But if you do
you get a chunkier Flag
and it is about the same DPs
so it doesn't matter
ye alr
as long as you dont get energy capped
100%
then it matters
so the point is that u have to rupture after flag
but vendetta placement doesnt actually matter
if its before or after rupture
is that correct? @compact pumice
and i assume its different for Necro as well right?
Yeh, doesn't matter.
you vendetta always after rupture for necro right or
Well for Necro you start with SBS, but everything else stays the same.
Doesn't really matter when you Vend
aight ty
Whispyr about to lay down the law
gg
Well yeah you get flag up and running earlier if you pop it before rupture. If you don't then use it just before your shiv window
yup yup
Me and gf get in a discord call and fall asleep together I was hard snoozin, but yeh, CT on slg is fine
does flag get bonus from MA effect?
Yes

Maybe we should use Flag as our first gcd then 
Yes, and it will still be lashing during MA if you shiv vanish close to popping Flag
oh
wrong reply
target 😛
😛
No, that’s hard trolling
wondering if u would like
woosh
No
We had someone here yesterday asking for help
And their rotation was one of the worst I've ever seen

It was using Flag as their first gcd
oh no
The "I leveled like this and never took a look at my rotation again"-rotation
He got a 81 parse from the kill

Yeh, who would have thought that even with a shitty opener you can do well as sin
Almost as if pressing random abilities at random order can still provide good results
I think Koji did a sim where he had the bot do random stuff and it still did pretty decent
Almost like I’ve been saying that for like 4 months
I don’t think he did that
Almost like we all have and people still don't believe it and focus all of their energy on it.
Ah, okay. He was talking about something similar like a few months ago, could just misremember it.
The eternal quote
Was in response to a sim I ran
And he looked into it
And was like
“This doesn’t do anything, turns out you can just randomly hit buttons 10% of the time and it’s fine”
That's the one


Ok guys, be honest, if you didn't hate Outlaw (I know some of you do) would you go SLG as Outlaw or Assa?
Depends on the tactic, but probably Outlaw.
ye probably otl
It's just much easier to play on SLG
Thanks!
And gets better results consistently
me also go otl for council
What’s an outlaw?
1: a person excluded from the benefit or protection of the law
2a: a lawless person or a fugitive from the law
b: a person or organization under a ban or restriction
c: one that is unconventional or rebellious
3: an animal (such as a horse) that is wild and unmanageable
Very
Outlaw players are chimps
Woah
I need my spec to go 3000 miles an hour and be random as fuck in order to keep my attention because I have adhd and hitting a lot of keys really fast masks the sounds of my parents fighting in the other room
Vigor Sin is like a nice medium of the zoomer generation and rogue
i only find outlaw super adhd as necro ._.
This needs to be pinned somewhere
Pin this
i was simming 5700 with venthyr, now 4900 with necro D:
Link the sim
Also are you 31 Renown or not?
Welp
yeah i know, but the St difference is huge, i wasn't expecting that much tbh
Well if you compare the best ST spec at max renown to any other covenant at 1 renown
of course it's going to be a big drop
For me it dropped from 7062 dps to 6940~
Just around 100 dps.
Might wanna get your renown up before you start simming stuff.
i guess you shoulduse all 3 charges during the vendetta?
You open with it and then you use it during Gemstone windows.
shouldn't you open with (in m plus) with garrote, mut as always?
If you run Subterfuge, then you always open up with garrote (or 3-4 garrotes on AoE)
Grats!
go fury warrior. fastest apm class and totaly braindead
outlaw is faster
outlaw is literally just faster
Most parses come down to timings



ew
llul

RL is a pepega
Yes you did
on first boss always insta bl at ink perfect for vendetta xD
that's why we lusted there
We used BL just before Barghast spawned
Old ScrubBusters players
And were told to save cooldowns for that
so they decent
Best build/leggo for pure Sire tunnel on Mythic prog is Zoldyck / Blindside / Deeper Strategem?
worth save ash for 9.1 and see what lege to get or buy em now? Getting an alt as I got CE on my warrior and we will have some alts in reclears
I am playing EP/Vigor/Doom and I am already no1
Zoldyck bs/ds/ct
Might as well buy them now. 9.1 is still a long while away and the system is changing a bit when it releases.
The higher ranks of stuff will need a second currency instead of soul ash
Good.
zor?
i believe they are called soul cinders for the higher ranks
mega soul ash was cooler
At the current numbers you can get 1 lvl 5 every week and 1 lvl 6 every 4 weeks
i actually play with doom blade in every encounter xD i'm still 21° on realm
@stoic needle is there a requitrement on having it at a particular rank beforehand? Changes non with standing ofc
No, you can upgrade something from lvl 1 to lvl 5 in one go but you'll need the soul ash as well
ty both
Ye, I explained it very poorly
You need the soul ash from previous ranks
That's better.
I don't know if the play is to upgrade multiple legendaries to lvl 5 first or one to lvl 6
The year is 2025. Patch 9.3 is out and each week we collect Soul Ash, Soul Cinders, Soul Embers, and Soul Coal from layer 20 torghast for reasons we've long since forgotten
ahahahahahahaha
u forgot soul bbq and steak
they said rogue may get a raid cd, what u guys think about mass cloak of skills? maybe 20% magic dmg reduction + removes all magic debuff/poison/desease?
shroud of immortality
or smoke bomb back
ahahaha
eh smoke bomb will make DH cd kinda pointless then
but claok will remove debuffs
but we are better than dh
or mass feint?
Just make cloak affect everyone in a radius when you use it
There, raid utility solved
mass cheat death
I would love to be able to cc raid mobs
Actually
It's so fun to stun bosses in Torghast
zek voz 🙂
Just give raid mobs like 5x the DR so you can't chain stun them
2 min cd raidwide ghostly strike 🙂
kidney shot can stun bosses

only kidney shot, nothing else, and every boss has a cast that you need to stun otherwise he will kill your tank
allow sub to throw kunai then teleport to the target that has the kunai mark for ninja fantasy
Let's leave that in league of legends ty
i was thinking naruto yellow flash but akali works too lol
Isn't it katarina? Idk I haven't played league in years
I'd be ok with this
that one too damn its been long
going into mythic sire with a guild that has a couple 0% wipes, but i don't have experience with the fight since i've not been raiding after last guild fell apart. have a few questions to ease the transition.
from what i've been reading/looking at, i should run 3/3/2/2/x/2/3 for P3 damage, correct? I assume CT because of all the movement in P3 devaluing poison bomb.
as far as playing CT in single target, just keep it up as much as possible outside of Shiv windows, but prioritise it below rupture, yeah?
cooldown wise, guessing we don't want to hold vendetta until the end of p2 when we have to stop damage, so that vendetta 3 lines up with duskhollow? in p3, hold it for lust since i don't think there is time for a 3rd one in the phase?
I usually dont use my second vendetta p1, because I burst first add, after that on CD
playing normally you will get 2 vendetta in P3 anyway
Yeah pretty much. I just use Vendetta on pull (so only one in P1), on Baron (in p2) and twice in P3.
Question about MA + CT: If I am in Vendetta window, I should use Envenom with Vanish instead of using Vanish +CT on 2 targets (e.g. Huntsman)? So CT outside MA window
Yes, you use Envenom during the MA window. You apply CT before or after that.
Thought so, thank you!
massacre hits through cloak, correct? i'm sure i saw a PoV of a rogue standing in a bunch of them with cloak the other day, but looking at logs it seems to ignore it?
need to find that vid again and see if i missed something
p3 massacre cloak does nothing, but I cant remember if you can cloak P2 massacre
you can in p2
you just get the bleed
in p3 you can't probably because you're in mirror phase
yeah, thats what I remember too
I really would love if blizzard was more clear with stuff like this
in the toolltip or in the journal, showing exactly what work on what
tbf might just be shitty coding, and they're not clear because it's the "secret mythic" phase
is doomblade the go to legendary right now for m+ and raiding?
m+ zold or dashing but for st doomblade is really strong
hmm i see
None of the sin legendaries alter your gameplay in any way so it's hard to call any of them fun
Thematically I think zoldyck is cool because you're executing everything for free
And doomblade is kinda cool because you get big envenoms
Almost all of the rogue legendaries are pretty boring
Is there a good reason the top rogues aren’t using IQD in PVE?
It's rare
That’s not a good excuse because almost all of them are using Phial
I mean it is a good excuse considering iqd wasn't 'discovered' until recently, with the venthyr rework
Top parses of Warcraft logs
there's plenty of top rogues using IQD
but there are other trinkets that are good
so im not really sure what the question is
IQD is a good trinket, so is memory, so is chain, so is dreadfire
phial is bis, which is why everyone runs it
Iqd is also bis, but only for venthyr technically and its rare. Plenty of people probably passed on one in their vault early on in the expansion because they didn't know how good it was
Thats something I love with warrior, make signet, use for al situations, aoe or st. Bit overwhelming with al different rogue legendarys who’s good for different specs and situations
Sounds boring to me
It was boring when zoldyck was bis for everything
I like having choices
Is there a way to guarantee that IQD will proc a specific secondary stat? outside lust window/execute range
I've got just a little bit of haste more than crit, but it always seems to proc crit
no
it's always your top 2
no way to control it
the guaranteed stat doesn't work with drums for some reason
would be nice if every new season bring new M+ gear, tired of same old gear for a whole xpac
the megadungeon will add some
yea but i will still be tired of grinding PF for phial if we cant upgrade our existing one
just wait til you gotta drop 2k+ valor on your 220 phial to get it to 260
O.o
inb4 season one M+ gear won't be upgradable on season 2
when reality hits
Probably needs a higher tier achievement for it
I don't know if they want people getting 250+ items the first week,.so there might be a softlock of some sort
Yeah, Season 2 KSM but I doubt blizz will let us off the hook that easy
But who knows
IIRC the way they did it between the last 2 seasons of BFA, they just shifted the difficulty up at a higher rate so the effect was a season 4 10 was like a season 3 15.
We didn't have valor gear in bfa
yea, that's true
but the key difficulty is what I'm referring to. Doing that would allow them to keep the upgrade points / KSM at the same place.
s4 10 = s3 15 at the same gear level?
or just in general?
the difficulty and reward both shifted
hmmm
season 4 +15 was essentially the difficulty of a +10 in season 3, and that was mostly due to corruption
@balmy condor does the serrated bone spike ability counts for Doomblade lego? thank you
yes
aight thank you
whats the best ST legendary
is their a breakpoints where i should start going for crit over haste? or just keep stackin the haste
for raiding*
ok thanks, im a healer main so not use to siming. would i just use raidbots?
yes
So about Shiv: If I have full CP and Shiv is ready and I got enough energy. Do I use Shiv and waste 1 CP or do I use Env, start with Muti anew and build my CP again for Shiv?
slam shiv
its fine to shiv at max cp
download simc addon
type ./simc in game
take that to top gear
and you can sim your best combination of gear in your bags
Was thinking the same but wasn't sure - thanks @shy dust
ty guy! ❤️
because it buffs nature damage
it's 9s idk why tooltip is still broken
Ohhh in that 9s you spam out as much envenoms?
That shiv link is Rank 2
https://www.wowhead.com/spell=5938/shiv
Outlaw, SubtletyAttack with your off-hand dealing (50% of Attack power)% Physical damage, and applying a concentrated form of your active Non-Lethal poison.Awards 1 combo point. AssassinationAttack with your your poisoned blades dealing (50% of Attack power)% Physical damage, and applying a concentrated form of your active Non-Lethal poison.You...
on single target yes, assuming neither of your dots have fallen off and you've played around that
i mean it was meant to be rank 2
he asked why it was considered a dmg cd
During shiv window I should spam 4cp envenoms, right? So stack combo points?
assuming you're not playing deeper, yes. but you don't wait. if you don't have the combo points ready you still slam it
but the idea is to pool beforehand
Yes, so I press shiv with pooled CP, go envenom, 2x mutilate, envenom, 2x mutilate, envenom
not envenom everytime i get combo points, right?
About to start prog on M Sludge - Kinda torn between running 2 on use - or phial+ 1 on use? Don't have 233 vessel yet. Any suggestions?
I have 226 Sins, Skulker and a 220 vessel - not sure what to run with
er, well, don't obey the pooling part during shiv
oops
i believe you'd want sins + vessel but i might be wrong on that, @shy dust any thoughts
O I have no idea
It seems like sins+vessel is the way to go - i was just wondering if i should use a 226 skulkers maybe instead of my 220 vessel?
Or maybe like phial+sins
ok, I'm confused now kekw
i just mean while shiv is on don't be sitting til 90 energy lol
A lot of the top logs have double on-use. But a lot of them have phial + on-use too. If you go double on-use, I'd use Sins on pull + 2 + 4 since other people with it will probably use it at those timings. Then you can use Skulker's for 1 + 3
ok thats exactly what i was thinking
i do have a 226 IQD - might give it a go in there too lol
btw. any good content creators for sin rogue on YT? M+ mostly. I found Infexious but there are some mixed opinions about the guy
IQD is pretty good
not sure where you use on sludge though
since he has weird timings
I know there's one rogue who parsed really well with it, ill look and see when he's using it
lol perfect 
I personally ran denath trinket and skulkers. Used one on pull and made sure to rotate between them and always use one or the other on a pillar
yeah i think that's the move right now
Is Doomblade pref on hands slot?
if you have access to mythic stone legion shoulders, yes
otherwise, put it on whichever slot you'd like
Any of the Timewalking trinkets good?
"some mixed opinions" 
what weak aura do you guys use?
my own
like your general one for combo points and bleeds and spells and stuff
is it on wago? :0
yeh i'll dm
pog
mind dm'ing me your WA too? Been looking for something i like
mhm
not quite the same thing but characterlinks will let you right click people and open their raider.io/wcl pages
in your browser of course
nvm it got abandoned 
I used to listen to @balmy condor without question then I heard this MONSTER prefers microwaving his nuggets over putting them in the oven. Now I just don’t know anymore. Maybe noxious is right 
Real meat or not microwaving nuggets is for sociopaths 
@balmy condor what the fuck bro
Dog out here enjoying his food moist af
I'm making a legendary for both raid and m+. Should I go Zoldyck or Dashing?
Sorry you're just wrong
DS seems to be slightly better overall, since it's better on ST.
For a combo I’d say zoldyck
okay
Zoldyck
I just need to get up and running ASAP. Trying to gear, so I'll make more as time goes on.
DS is better on ST, but it is pretty poor for M+
You can make a 190 zoldyck and a 190 dashing or doomblade in 2 weeks
the problem with dashing is it's not actually bis at anything, at least rn. so you'd end up making the other two eventually anyway
Put a bowl of water in the oven with the nuggets to keep them from drying out 👌
Do you guys normally run Zoldyck for m+ or MA?
I see a lot of people running MA but I wasn't sure if that's just because it's so strong as Outlaw too
Zoldycks personally
Yeah I don't really run MA anymore
Does Zoldycks apply to SBS too?
Sin is not a burst class
Because if so that's a nobrainer
Yeah it does
@alpine latch so does Doomblade btw
Feelsbad when you have a guild steal the haste ring off of heroic denathrius after u win roll :<
7h of pugging lmao
Hello assassination
Which sim option are people using as a bench mark for single target damage. Is it top Gear, quick sim, or something else?
They all accomplish the same goal, but the fight style is what's important
You want to sim patchwerk
Top gear is good for deciding between gear
Quick sim is to see more detailed information about suggested rotations, stats, damage breakdowns and etc
@balmy condor 18 wake 
18 mists... i wanted 7k 
even with bshout 
btw, how do you show everyone's covenant in details ?
thanks ❤️
are trinkets like Dreadfire Vessel affected by Master Assassin talent?
in faq
going into Mythic SLG with guild now and im wondering if anyone knows the best stat optimization for it?
agility
mastery 
crit > haste = mastery
unless you're just full boss damage mode then just crit and haste

What are your thoughts on Dashing Scoundrel, freindos? should i try it out or should i just stick with doomblade?
its slightly worse on 1 target and better on like 3
but in aoe its worse than zold
so if you want to, go for it
Ah. thanks freindicle
yah ayh. I see that Doomblade is slightly ahead. but if Dashing Scoundrel has you swimming in energy i thought i might like the feel more
very possible
Usually people leave out the feels based argument
When talking about the strength of things
It varies so much. Some people love the feeling of SBS and find it impactful others don’t
What's like the best strategy for p3 denathrius ravage #2 with the knockback? Pick someone with an immunity and shadowstep them?
you can also run into the first ravage
get booped forward, massacres pass and even if you get the soak you still have time to position it
followup what all does cloak actually block besides pre-existing ground effects?
only blood price
still picks you up, just no damage right?
yes
thanks
Guys, it finally happened 😭 😭 😭
Toxic people
had someone rant and quit the group once when we invited a guardian druid to tank an 11 atal
in like, 8.2

Last week someone kicked me for BEING outlaw. Apparently "don't even know meta scrub" is now a thing lmao
haha
What happened?
he got kicked for not being outlaw
Spicy rice cake
what key level was this
please say it was like +6 or something
an 18 hoa haha
that would be more funny tho
first time being kicked for my spec. Ive heard other ppl complain about it but no one has ever asked before
Some plaguefall +6 need lust and 1800 io vibes
"Outlaw only, must be Venthyr. Rune, food, stones, flask mandatory. Minimum 1200 io"
used to happen to me all the time in Legion 😂
i legit see 14s all the time asking specifically for fire mages
like
key must be struggle bus
lol
I love that shit. I do a lot of 14s to fill vault. When I join and they say "we need a lust for last dps" im just like no you don't it's a 14
Maybe in December when we had 205 ilvls, but in may with average ilvls of a lot of pugs being like 220+... You don't need a list for a 14 lmao
watching the m0s quickly turn into that was also hilarious
2 weeks into the xpac "180+ ilvl", like guys i had a group specifically not look up any mechanics, totally blind, and we all cleared it in full mythic nya gear lmao
also the tank didn't even have a covenant yet 
I can understand if you're doing really high keys being reluctant to take off meta specs if you don't have experience with them. But the meta slaving that happens at low keys, especially when you get down into single digits is absolutely hilarious
For emeni there's a questline
You can just hover over the soulbind and see what is required to open it
Nevermind, found it..
Yeh just little questlines and more renown
yeah sorry..its a binding quest bla bla
forgive me if im wrong but is dashing scoundrel better in consistent fights?
what makes it sim so high?
It does damage
It sims so high because it’s just strong

The envenom damage is actually about equal to doomblade
And the doomblade bleed is pretty much just the poison/poison bomb damage
also another question, does duskwalker allow u to vendetta every pillar in sludge?
or nah
why so?
Yep
oh nice
PI 👀
welll
Doesn’t help
Benevolent fairies 👀
You could be haste capped and dusk is still like 65 seconds or something
Fairies would work
You gotta play vigor on sludge with dusk though
Or else you’ll never make it
using other leggos would be like shooting yourself in the foot
Not really
Wearing no legendary at all is shooting yourself in the foot
Taking a 2-3% loss isn't that huge of a deal if you're trying something new
if it makes your cooldowns line up well for a fight maybe it would be good
Why would the comparison be not using a legendary
Does shadowmeld proc subterfuge? As in can i meld garotte instead of vanish garotte?
So ill have to meld stealth then garotte?
Does that work while fighting in dungeons/raids?
You cannot drop combat in raids.
Oo.. is it worth it? Like can u do it fast enuf like vanish garotte?
It’s worth but it’s not giga huge op
I just think the characterization of using a legendary that's not optimal as "shooting yourself in the foot" is misleading. It's not like you're doing to do negative dps if you have one of the non bis legendaries equipped
Well then nothing is shooting yourself in the foot
Well on trash you can shadowmeld -> stealth -> 3 subter garrotes
I would agree that nothing is really shooting yourself in the foot considering how close our legendaries are
So I just took a look at the top 100 sin for inerva M
do you all play ep+vigor or blindside+ds?
Like if you wanna try out a different legendary you should do that
What legendary we talking about here 
Dusk
Is doing meld stealth garotte basically instant? Like vanish garotte? Or do u have to wait for a bit to meld stealth.. then garotte?
Wait
Unless like a dot or something insta breaks your meld you can stealth insta
Just don’t be like in the middle of all the mobs and it should be like very easily executable
Nelf?
Yeh
Idk on trash meld is like pretty instant
I guess I’m just a shitter
I would get MA resets with it on trash as sub
hard to meld as a blood elf 
Just remember Pasagetti, can’t do it on bosses
Eh so basically nelf rogues arent that hype
Nah
Pretty hype for mythic+
I think the issue with trying out suboptimal legendaries is the fact you do 5 weeks worth of torghast for a max rank
Mechagnomes though 
So like
Don't... Make a max rank one then? 
Just throwing 5 weeks or torgy out just to experiment/play around with something
But then you really are just shooting yourself in the foot lol
Just equipping worse gear
You don't need a max rank legendary to try something out
The majority of the power of a legendary is in the effect
Even a rank 1 is like more than 1 weeks worth of ash lol
It's one week with the mission
Yea with a mission
You get one every week
Haven't done any missions in 2 months. 
See
Lol
Was gonna say what if you just have shit companions or literally dont do it
I like free augment runes and anima without having to do world quests
i haven't done anything since swapping covenants 
I do my mission table i just know theres people who don’t
I don't think that's really relevant though
Idk at the end of the day people can do whatever they wish with their ash lol they can decide that for themselves
A lvl 1 legendary is incredibly easy to make for the power it gives
As a cf tho his responsibility is more or less to suggest the best course of action
Not just be like hey man go make bloodfang fuck it bro
That's not what I'm talking about tho
I'm talking about someone who said "I'd like to try out the other legendaries, but that's like shooting yourself in the foot"
Which I think isn't true
Idk
It feels awfully semantic
For no real reason
They’re free to try out a legendary
But it will be worse
And that’s just how it be
Ye just know its worse hence the shooting foot part
he never specified what type of gun it was it could be a water gun
In the end playing a sub-optimal legendary in a sub-optimal covenant will not be the reason you parse 30's. Who cares.
True maybe osho thinking of like a 50 cal
And whispyr thinking more of an airsoft gun
Again, I think the legendaries are close enough that you can try different things out and no one will notice the difference except you

What the fuck did I miss lmfao
Nothing
Hey, I was wondering if anyone could help me with an example of when I should use feint or evasion? Like I get one is dodge chance (is that melee and ranged/magical attacks) and one is aoe, but I’m very new to the class and a bit confused by them >.<
Evasion lets you dodge melee attacks and certain specific physical abilities that can be dodged
Feint allows you to reduce damage taken from aoe abilities
in 99% of cases evasion won't do anything in terms of boss mechanics.
Feint also lacks in terms of boss mechanics
There’s many abilities that should be dmg reduced by feint, but just aren’t for no reason
Oh thank you guys so much 😅
Shit's all fucked
First boss NW
You can evasion the heaving retch
Can't bop it
But you can cloak it
Yeah damn
Classic blizzy
Blood price is scuffy af
It's wild that ground placed healer CDs don't work on it
Yet amz barrier and link are still busted LOL
rofl
tldr shit's weird and especially this xpac you just won't know until you try
there's a sheet being worked on
but kinda delayed atm
what conduits and soulbinds am i prioritizing as venthyr for m+? as thats pretty much all i play.
@strange python evasion also works for the rush on kaal in SD
ive even dodged it without it tho, just gotta make sure you are facing her
Actually you can dodge the rush by just running/shadowstepping/soulshaping etc. during the rush.
Lashing Scars conduit for all content, Nadja with Dauntless Duelist for ST/raids and Theotar with Wasteland on M+.
Are my talents right for keys?
https://cdn.discordapp.com/attachments/500101269336358922/838697036676726834/talents.png
Yep
Thanks! I appreciate it!
Isn't Feint also wonky in SLG where most abilities that seem they shouldn't be AoE, are treated like they are? Or have I been lied to.
Feint is fine on SLG but really iffy on Sire.

Okay sweet. I already pop it for most things just as a habit, plus have started taking Elusive, but nice to know when it does and does not work.
Honestly should just play Cheat Death always. The raid is very one-shot -heavy and it can help quite a bit. But each to their own in the end :p
i seem to be struggling with my aoe rotation in m+
are there any kyrian assassination rouges that want to share their experience? And if they went to the venthyr and how that experience was afterwards?
I'm certainly no pro, but general tips -
Keep CT up (but don't spam), garotte everything, rupture what will live the dyration. Fan at 4+ targets. Shiv on CD.
Kyrian rogues are a rare breed
I'm outlaw atm and i feel i invested way too much in to the kyrian, feels such a 'waste' to swap 😢
Even for Outlaw Kyrian is not great.
Outlaws wanna go Necro
Switching is not too bad, I've switched from NF to Venth to Necro. Everything at 40 renown
yeah true, but it's not horrible either (but thats another discussion)
it's not about the renown, it's about the 100000 anima i farmed over months and months
Might as well finish off Kyrian before the patch. You never know.
and also my companions which are all like 55
i mean sure i'm taking meatball over with me
Yeah. If you care about that sort of stuff, then don't switch
Most people who chase the best covenant for high dps don't care for anima/companions
true, will just wiat a bit and see how many execute fights there are in 9.1 raid, because for example denathrius p3 is all that really matters
and thats mostly in execute range
But what does the covenant matter in that scenario?
Are you talking generally about dps checks?
dont know have no clue how the covnents are simmed during an execute phase
Yeah well they don't matter.
Venthyr does more damage overall, that's why it also does more in execute
But not because it interracts with execute in any way
It just does more damage overall
yeah thats true
I will just try a bit with kyrian, and if I want that extra damage i'll go venthyr 🙂 tnx
i went from kyr to venth and it was game changing
just feels so much better
burst windows are HUGE
Will never swap to Vent, the gold from the queen's conservatory is keeping me NF
So far I've gone Venth - Kyrian - Fae - Venth - Stinky.
The only change that didn't feel too meaningful was Venth to Kyrian. Fae never felt stand out, but was still a step up from OG venth and Kyrian.
Thinking of going NF -> Venth. Playing to our strenght, which is ST.


Is getting Rupture on all Targets in M+ a higher Priority then CT?
No
Okay. So Icy Veins isn't that accurate, I guess?
getting rupture on 3-4 targets is higher priority than CT. not ALL Targets
wait m+ CT is prior
Okay. So I do Rupture first on 3-4 Targets and then CT?
just saw the M+
Oh thx. I didn't saw that. I was in Rotation for Multitarget
Pants
how do u guys track all of the dots on aoe?
I have like 10 debuffs on targets and have to look at which dot is falling off
I use nameplates. I have just blacklisted everything that I don't want to see. I only track Garrote/Rupture/CT/SBS/Deadly Poison
I have a script/mod for plater that change the size of some debuffs (garrote and rupture and vendetta) and I also filter unnecessary debuffs
it's still fine
prolly second best choice for outlaw
I could as I could instantly swap to kyrian
but last few times I tried to login on PTR the game crashed
Kyrian lego as sin seems super stressful
i thought the kyrian rogue hype was dead 3weeks after expac launch?
There was no Kyrian rogue hype. Maybe for Sub in PVP
When we got Renown 31, NF just blew Kyrian out the park
I'm not speculating on viability, just usability
wow, I'm such a noob...been playing wow for 12 years now and just found out that taurens & draenei can't be rogues! 😆
Nothing stealthy about either
yeah, it makes sense, I just never thought about it...or any other race for that matter...been an NE rogue since forever and only just thought to race change and I was like "Whooooaaaa 😮 "
bruh, i remember the copium at expac launch where everyone always said WHOA KYRIAN SO GOOD, even 2-3 weeks after the nerf for it 
a shame actually, imagine massive tauren trying to be stealthy with hooves 
Sorry noob here, trying to figure out what "Dungeon Slice" means?
is this a certain number of targets or anything above 1 target?
It's a simulation of a dungeon encounter.
It generates 1 boss fight and a certain number of mob packs
Which allows the sim to stealth between packs and whatnot
ah okey, thanks
👍
What a W 
Cev is literally a chad
What is the best legendary atm for assa?
What are the best conduits as well for assa? (could send pic of yours or something)
all in the pins my friend
Congrats! 😄
!guide
Now the real grind starts 😛 do you have a push team ?
tyty
so i've seen buffs on enemy mobs that have the white outline while playing sin, does that mean i have a soothe?
if so, what do i use in that case?
if its about soothe, every spec can do that
shiv with mind numbing poison to soothe
if the raid is lusting on 4th pillar on sludge is it 1st pillar and 4th pillar for cds
Mythic? Cds on pull, 2nd pillar and 4th
ty
u get 1 shiv in between each pillar and 1 shiv for each pillar as well
cool so shiv out of pillars too just once
obv hold it for the big stooped fuck headbutting the pillar
yup, it lasts 9s so smash it before he hits pillar then you have 10s for mashing his face in
unless ur soak fucks you then just cry to yourself
i should run EP and Vig ye
was thinking maybe even running MFD
i can get 20% haste unbuffed so could be the play what you think
i know some pepole try out mfd, and thats what i was going to do on reclear
@scarlet swift Thanks boys!
No I don't, that's all from pugging. I wish I had a team to push with. 
I would still go ep vig, 20% won’t be enough unless you’re getting a couple pi’s
i dream for tauren rogues
literally ideal
yeah, and Baine DID go rogue on Sylvanas back in BFA 😋
hi guys .. are u holding flagellation for vendetta cd or using it solo ?
Flag before a finisher (rupture in the opener), then on cooldown, only line up with vend if you won’t miss a cast
did you just assume my gender
actually no, "Man" is a noun - "Male" is a gender..."Man is usually used to refer to a "Male" but there's some wiggle room there 😝
just got my best pull on SLG heroic without legendary 
Doom blades dps loss confirmed?

Why didn't you have a legendary on
In what situation do you ever remove your legendary

You have a gear set with no leggo? 
I guess 
legendaries are a clutch confirmed
this emote
@hollow escarp @gusty mirage Looki what I just got 
66% of the way to Ryfie's score
Soon™️

Let’s go oooo
I'm hoping to have KSM on my new rogue by the end of the week so I can start getting into higher keys. Not sure that I'll ever push 20s but my new guild is interested in pushing a bit, so it'll be fun.
Good luck! It's a fun challenge, even more if you have a good group of buddies to do it with.
Yeah, that's the hard part.
Guys whats better.. Sharpening stone or´Shadowcore oil?
looking to maybe transition into assassin what leggo should i be looking ot build first and on what slot
Oil for ST, stones for m+
thanks
how bad is if tank chainpulls in a m+ as assa rogue and not leting rogue restealth?
like not every single pack maybe 1/4
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, as assasin it probably kills you tbh
it feels really fucking bad
no garrote spread
no easy cp build for CT
it might not be that bad, but it just feels bad
At least our 11% dps gain conduit doesn't need restealths like outlaw 
But not gonna lie even if the tank is chain pulling you can still get restealths if you hang back a bit
Only time i cant restealth is with bad pride spawn when mob still alive. Or with those damb ghost
in 20's i queued maybe 100 ones since reset, all declined or delisted cuz full
cba this , better to find a team
First time doing storming on something that's not my BDK and I now appreciate melee a lot more when they manage not to get hit.
Normally just Deaths advance and continue as normal
I'm really bad at dodging storming 
Yeah next time I tank storming ima do a lot more kiting if I have melee. I feel for them now
It seems hard to even tell when they're about to spawn, much less the direction they're going to go in when there's 7 mobs stacked and a billion frontals going everywhere
My WAs covering some of the area under my feet doesn't help either
Died to frontals in HoA a LOT in my first storming key as rogue
I got 2k today :3
