Hahahaha
all my heroic parses are still sub 
As should be
want to confirm: do we hold shiv for each pillar in Sludge?
every other shiv, yes
what do you mean every other shiv
pillars are 1 minute between
shiv is 25 seconds
so shiv on pillar, use shiv one more time, then hold for next pillar
okay, so shiv on pull, hold for 1st, use after 25, hold for 2nd
so on and so on, right?
you can shiv on pull and then use another shiv before first pillar
o ok
esp because it comes up right before slams if you use it on cd
my only 99 is an outlaw parse 
heroic 
Btw why is exsanguinate not used for assa on slidge
Sludge*
Surely the burst on the pillar would be nuts
its terrible is why
Solid
Ok but why? Surely it's just burst into a burst time period right
And it'd be up for every pillar
let me ask you a questioon
I'd test it myself rn if I could
why do you not play dark shadows as sub on sludgefist
even though it will be better burst on the pillar
Cause your damage falls off too hard outside of it
blizz make interesting talent challenge 
the only reason exsang was relevant at all in bfa was because of shrouded suffocation and the ridiculously high levels of haste we were able to reach with corruption

What else are you gonna tell me oxi, that we don’t double garrote with subterfuge anymore because we don’t have shrouded?
but the extended empowered garrote 

You mean to tell me
BLEED DAMAGE MAKES BLEED TALENTS BETTER?
Dude
Fuck
My eyes have been opened



look cev, we can't all be gaming warlords like you
you lack faith\
im just gonna have to settle with my two rank 1 normal parses

my heroic assa logs are cursed
never the 99s

Hey @balmy condor are you playing venth or nl?
Most people going necro in advance for 9.1 or is that the go to cov now ?? I'm venth atm but debating going NL for our mythic council and beyond prog
I love venth but feels crappy anything outside of st
necro is better on anything with more than 1 target, and the gap on ST isn't too large
ends up being like 80 dps or so
Oh that's not bad
Yea I figured flag buff would be nice for sludge but wasn't sure if nexro had a nice burst window, haven't touched the cov at all.
for sludge specifically i would bet the venthyr gap is a bit larger
Kk so worth staying venth till after sludge prog
Like on a good pillar my flag does as much as envenoms
it's not unethical because farm kills can't abuse the potion duration really 
I've not done mytbic raiding in awhile so haven't felt the need to min max shit like this till now , sorry for all the basic questions
I swapped to necro mid sludge prog and my average damage went down by like 500dps
Lol at work so the pins suck on my phone for some reason otherwise I'd just read
I can't wait until reclear tomorrow
That specific question isn't in the pins at least
I can fix my logs
Gonna photo shop?
god help me
I was scrolling earlier so for venth specific oshosi you hold CDs for open 2 and 4 , with shiv buff up into each one. For flag specifically are you ramping it to full buff for window or building up stacks as you go for lash damage ?? Assume the later
You can shiv 2x before first pillar then once between as well
lash damage, yes
on mythic sludgefist should i be saving coolies for first pillar or just use on c/d and should i be reapplying dots during bonus dmg window
Open 2 and 4
Pull / 2 / 4
what about dots worth reapplying or nah
Before ideally
If you have to reapply dots during pillar you messed up
treat it like a shiv window
Big fn shiv window
Refresh your bleeds before pillar
I'm probably just gonna have to accept that I'm never gonna get an SLG kill and be 9/10 forever
Building up stacks on the pillar for lash damage
I figured , thank you
Figure it's my last boss as venth wanna make sure it goes well lol
Just pray your soaks are all on the pillar 
anyone got a nice plater profile they dont mind sharing?
hey gamers. should I be using shadowcore oil/pots? Simc default says yes. If so, on both hands or just the one?
we all use stones and agi pots because they're more consistent

thanks, appreciated
anyone notice that flags haste duration sometimes doesnt get refreshed when dumping combos?
? flag's haste duration is always 24s
nop
then im regarded
it would be absolutely pants on head broken if it refreshed
Coming back to WoW for 9.1 and looking to switch from Outlaw to assassination. I checked the pins and if I am reading them correctly should I go Venth with a Doomblade legendary first if my focus is raiding?
venth/necro yea
Yeah I am trying to decide between the two. Think I might lean into the ST focus of assassination which Venth seems a little stronger in
Go Necro
@stoic needle is that player fixed I tried getting it this morning was giving me a constant error
Plater
yes i just uploaded a fix for that
https://www.warcraftlogs.com/reports/qZFkpMt9RY12HQXa#fight=18&type=damage-done any feedback for this log? tried to fix mistakes from last week feedbacks but still ~blue parse
nice name
Oh shit I didn't even realise are you the creator
And a boat
A boat of these nuts?
is that gonna bring me to 6k 😦
probably not, also make sure you get a weakaura to track gemstones
and unload your SBS charges during the gemstone window
did u check through the logs if I didnt empty them during gem?
plus your killtime's kinda long
I tried to do it but honestly didnt check the logs how accurate I was
I mean the time was kind of good
6:30
and my latest vendetta was on 6:15
good for my dps I mean
I didn't look too closely but your first window of gemstones was 3s in
and besides your opening SBS you didn't cast another
so during gem I should ignore rupturing and garroting?
or just I should change muti with SBS?
nah you'd still garrote and rupture
sub beating sin on ST dps in 9.1 now?
but I'd use SBS as a builder during gemstones
Venthyr sub
Necro no
Obedience slaps on sub
it's a 10s window so you could just dump them toward the end of the window for another finisher
No
sorry, my brain hurts i just woke up
wheres the disclaimer
yep definitely didnt do that
Sub actually getting love 
Pls god not sub again
but still cant understand how with better uptime that guy did 1.2k+ dps
I mean how much is sub doing more than sin in ST?
Subject to change ptr stuff blah
bleeds still be bleeds for prog lol
Bout 200ish?
Kinda overrated tbh
Bleeds were just the copium I needed when sun was in jail tbh
just going off what ive heard from friends, I guess ill find out for myself come 9.1 lol
“Sin suffers less from downtime” is copium for when sub is better
never raided as rogue anything before
9.0: sin gets shit on. 9.0.5: sin shines! 9.1 Blizz decides that the best pvp rogue spec should once again be the best pve rogue spec because reasons
or you know patch is 2 months away and a 5min patchwerk number doesnt decide the tier
yes. obviously I'm exaggerating
unless one is alot better youre not gonna have a clue whats "best" probably until lik a month in
claiming that it's the best pve rogue spec in general is asinine as m+ is still pve
zoldyck or doomblade for m council?
Zoom
zoomblade
zoomblade pog


Is your profile pic that mastery bell from the WQ?
you're goddamn right
Oh no.
what if the maw rat leggo was actually good and no one ever tried it because it sounds awful?
Now you’ve gone an done it
do you have a moment to talk about our lord and savior?


Can u ban him whispyr?
how much mastery do you have? lmfao
pls don't ban osh, we need someone to make fun of
WHISPYR HAS MORE MASTERY THAN ME
Or at least blacklist mastery from his mouth? Lmfao
he takes it like a champ
Man if I had ban privileges this channel would be invite only
wut?

i only have 32%
LOL
LMFAO
whispyr has more
how much mastery does whispyr have?
i peeped his armory it's at least 35%
yeah but whispyr isn't testing a 200 ilvl trinket because it gives a lot of mastery
so
I’m cursed with mastery drops
i'm at 21.8% and i thought that i was awful
i can't hear you over my big dick crimson tempests
Nah that’s based
nah. i'm so close to cutting mastery outta my diet entirely
Be happy you’re getting something other than mastery rings and necks from the vault
BASED
Cause that’s been my life
i keep getting loot im wearing lol
or osh will haunt your dreams
¯_(ツ)_/¯
i will
I can mute him in my dreams
i just do what the computer tells me is good
he'll appear with that stupid fuckin trinket and be like "HAVE YOU HEARD ABOUT OUR LORD AND SAVIOR?"
i'll show up in your your house and bonk you
I AINT scared
YOU CAN'T SILENCE THE TRUTH
mute @stoic needle 560h

Whoops no prefix
five hundred and 60 hours?!

damn
Based
Yeah as an appetizer
wow
best part about it, is whispyr will hit you with a
after it too
just as a cherry on top

If only u had more mastery, your poisons would be stronger than this toxicity, osh :/
this is statist persecution
LOL
persecition
I assumed most rogues went outlaw for council for adds. Are people doing well with assass for m council?
Persnickety
Most rogues don’t get to hit council adds

i just play assassination and do melee auto attack damage and somehow i'm up there with my guild's boomies
Lemony Persnicket
I just go whatever I'm already specced as when I log out
but on that cursed fight i just submit to them
if its assa m+ talents? We're going with that
You’re telling me you don’t have boomies with rock hard schlongs ready to blast those adds the moment they even think about spawning?
not like we're killing it anyway 
oxi how many council pulls do you have
they get yelled at by the raid lead for aoe'ing too much
we got to like 30, then a month long grind to get our roster back
I went outlaw for it we double grip adds in Soni got decent up time
and I think we're up to like.... 42
Padding :/
you should see the shit show that is SLG with 4 boomies 2 mm hunters and 2 fire mages... oh and 2 aff locks
big oof
Point is usually the role of the rogue is slamming boss damage, so sin huge
Kk
dude our slg roster is 2 ww, 1 havoc, 1 frost, 2 fire mage, 2 hunter
If you need the add damage
We just started on it. I'm sin for heroic
Go outlaw
adds? what adds?
That’s fine too
But figured mythic outlaw was play
you'd only need to go outlaw if your add damage is dookie
Kk
On SKS I literally don’t play the game until kaelthas spawns
yeah I vendetta the first dude, go my rotation and just play sudoku on my phone until kaelthas spawns
just realized but.... sub is such an UwU ninja spec
first time really looking at the skills here lol
I don’t even vendetta first dude. I have to hold vendetta for shields 
i mean you throw shuriken
shuriken and black powder
you teleport behind things
shadow dance
xD
a what trait?
an azerite trait
One of the best sub rogues I know is named Uwulane
it was most definitely not a sub trait 😄
I think @shy dust knows him?
Sounds like a fucking weeb
or inev, or first dance
honestly debating going panda is sub is #juan for rogues in 9.1 lul
@shy dust I got you, I'll report your current name for being offensive to my cultural beliefs
and bingo flagged for name change
reflecting back on the azerite trait names, blizzard were so punny
vendetta -> nothing personal
HAR HAR HAR BLIZZARD
lmao
226 phial/IQD/shadowgrasp -- should I use phial and shadow on sludge? IQD is just bad for it right
M sludge
I’m just saying, for being anti-weeb; that’s quite an uwuname
Me when I watch whispyr go on a tear 
than a nerd with the name Uwulane
Iqd slams
I’m revoking your use of the scriptures
your PI logs dont count

I hit rank 2 behind Passasssin without a singular PI


imagine if your 1st raid day was Thursday
iqd is very good for sludge
Id be like nr. 8 if I knew how to parse on council
with 0 PIS sir
maybe vantus council this week 
parsing on council takes a raidwide commitment to padding no?
nvm im thinking of sks
is there like 2 other rogues that have ok full clear logs on necro?
hmm I think I have a few with necr but I guess theyre overwritten when venthyrs is higher
only reason I ask is out of all the logs for m sludge you see people using shadowgrasp more often than IQD, when it comes to the dungeon trinkets
like 3% of players using shadow vs 1% using IQD
probably because they don't have a 226 iqd
both of them are pretty rare to have at an ilvl worth using, and iqd is still very misunderstood
people think it's sim bait
so on pull and 4th pillar? it's just an awkward trinket to use on the fight
right i'm at 99% when activated
Do you recommend a macro for execute range usage? Mine is 50/50, I end up just de selecting and using it
i'm trying to find one myself. use@self doesn't seem to work well
but also it's rare that you use it in execute range when lust isnt up
depends on the fight i guess
hey all you cool cats and kittens, the DH discord is useless. What stats do I meme as?

crit mastery
move speed and chaos DPS
osh would be proud
Holy shit he should just play DH
@stoic needle thoughts?
Just macro it with a cancel target or self target then target last target after using?
Worked well when I was using iqd
why is sub channel quiet? Are they role playing with me? I'm scared D=

yo you good homie? @echo estuary
😆

any1 kill Sire [Mythic] in here?
had this weird thing in P2 where my poisoned knife didn't take me over to Duskhollow
I always jump and shadowstep
The second one? Maybe I'm just dumb, but I swear I tried that before and just couldn't.
me in the air
late here because I had impale I guess
not sure if the conduit is the difference maker but not like youre gonna be using a different one
either as venth or necro
ded spec
It’s slumbering till 9.1
What stats would you guys put on your bleed execute legendary if you're only concerned about raid progression on next tier?
I was at work homie I gotchu
Crit haste
Hey friends 🙂 does anyone know why garrote never procs and extra combo point via seal fate? From what i can tell it doesn't but it is a "melee attack that generates combo points" ....?
Correct me if I'm wrong, but afaik garrote doesn't deal any damage on application, meaning it can't crit - and therefore can't proc seal fate
could anyone take a look at my h shriekwing parse from tonight? i know ilvl parse is kind of a meme but i don't really understand why it's so much lower than my overall parse. a few obvious things are no warrior, no monk, and our tank was kinda far from a pillar tonight so a bit of extra downtime when i had to los but yeah. https://www.warcraftlogs.com/reports/gVqnRvTbNKfr24kZ/#fight=1&type=damage-done&source=5
@vast iris’s explanation is spot on
The instant damage from garrote is actually the first tick
It doesn’t do any upfront damage
Ahhh that makes sense 🙂 was just wondering thanks!

Couple things since I'm on mobile and can only do so much, but your opener is real rough. Don't garrote in the MA window. You also hit shiv in the MA window on both vanishes. Definitely don't do that. Didn't waste any combo points though, that's good.
ah yeah that makes sense. thanks for the feedback
looking through some other logs and the guide, i've been trying to get a 5-6pt rupture off in my opener and i think that's wrong, right?
Looking at the opener on IV guide it's mut -> SnD -> mut -> garrote -> rupture, if you're Kyrian or NF
so it's gonna be a minimum 3cp rupture if you don't proc seal fate on the mutilate
and with getting another mutilate in the MA window instead of garrote i guess i'll usually get a higher cp rupture anyway

Anyone know a good sin rogue pvp streamer?
empowered conduits is where its at
Hey guys, question, if I have Shiv available but there is a 2nd target that I could put my bleeds on, should I hold Shiv until both are bleeding or I use shiv but spend on rupture to put it on cd?
In short, is it worth it to hold shiv while you put bleeds on other targets.
I think overall it probably wont change your dps all the much but its an interesting question lol
just wait till you hear a Whispyr in your ear for the answer
empowered?
as u get renown
your conduit slots will become empowered
so whatever conduit you slot into that specific slot will be stronger
I think u start unlocking them after you unlock the new rows
oooo
It's such a small thing, but using it on CD is generally the priority. Just put your bleeds up on one target, slam shiv and then start applying bleeds to the second target
yes and no. You don't want to ever shiv a target you're going to slam envenoms into without having rupture going first, but if you're in aoe for example and you're not going to envenom the target much, it's fine to just throw the shiv out and continue multidotting
do you pool energy before shiv?
wat aboot bleeds shiv swap targ bleeds swap back envenom? lol
You should just stick to your main target and apply bleeds without actually target swapping
ToP 19. Zoldyck or Doom?
zoldyck
check raztvx on twitch
Pikaboo streams sometimes as sin in 3s, but most of the time he's boosting scrubs as sub
What do u think about MA talent vs Garrote talent on dena myth? Overall dps wise
This MA talent seems lackluster to me..
30% my base crit
you also have weigh the fact that garrote doesnt do much dmg in the first place, so subterfuge is also lackluster
Ye agree whole row doesnt looks appealing)

Ma being 50% feel quite bad, I miss legion ma
How do u guys would approach vanish then? With 4-5 cp to hit that 80% critchance(in my case) envenom then mutilate to 4 cp and 4cp envenom again? I didnt check if 3 sec window enough for these actions
Or muti envenom muti is same
You know the legendary is still there?
It's literally the same thing, except it's 1s shorter.
MA wasn't a talent in Legion
If you play Vig, you do Env - Muti - Env (if at 4CP). With DS it doesn't matter, you use 1 Env and 2 Muti's regardless
Ye i sometimes play vigor sometimes ds, but always vigor on dena, only coz everyone in logs picking it)
But anyway its almost no difference in damage output, i mean press order during vanish
As far as i understood
Right?
Yup
i just looked up legion talents, anticipation sounds so dumb for world content i love it
10 cp sounds so abnormal
I know that it's just that getting no mut crits feels awful when you know you have 80% crit
nothin you can do but pray
Not critting with either hand with Mutilate during MA windows is really rare.
but man when they dont, the depression hit you like no other 
@balmy condor you also forgot about Draught of Souls trinket during that MA window
Ye
rogues and warriors were gods with that trinket, MA/Recklessness = broken
dmg was great but i hated the animation lock playstyle of it
Is 214 rogue too low for 15 keys? I have already KSM which I did with pug, but I had to run only my keys. I could not get into a group even with 7x15 keys and 1x14 key. I have overal siting over 5k but I just don't know why is rogue not accepted. And I have over 20 timed 10-14 keys. Do you have this problems too?
No, that's perfectly fine.
I have problems getting into groups as well as a 226. It's just the nature of the game.
Your best bet is to find a team or just push your own key with pugs.
Getting into 15's is really tough because there's always like 60+ applicants in every single group, so it's hard to stand out as a 214 ilvl rogue among all of the 220 boomkins and fire mages.
Until your main io is over 2k
Eh
Yeah, I started 15 with like 208ilvl. But at the end I just could not find any group for pf 15 and I did not have it. Even when I noted I am necro :D
I have this problem on my hunter... but on my tanks or heals insta invite lol the dps life is rough
Yeah, I am just thinking about doing only 4 keys on rogue for weekly and focus on something else.
My guild decided to move to horde, and I’m gonna level a rogue which race is best for mix of pvp/pve? I was thinking orc?
Orc is fine. It's the best for ST dps.
But all of the race differences are very, very, very marginal, so it's preference in the end.
belf cuz the tmogs are better, ez
Thank you very much
but you have to factor in scaling issues with orcs, other races might catch up and beat orc by 1 or maybe even 2 dps by the end fo the expac
Vulpera looks best :D

mate
what
racials dont matter
+orc is not even good IF they would matter
lol
sorry was the mention of 1 or 2 dps not sarcastic enough
filthy casuals not minmaxing
You have to factor in that transmogs look best on female orcs so thats a dps gain
Anyone have any tips or tricks or suggestions for being a yellowboi on Council of Blood Mythic?
Keep one extra target bled with Gar/Rup, otherwise pump ST.
For energy regen?
Yes sir
Yes, but you're still connected to your partner, so you still have to run.
Doesn't remove the stacks, but negates the damage.
Hm
Hey guys, im trying to improve my damage in p2 sire, and when i went to check some top rogues logs, i noticed they are often spamming mutilate 4-5 times in a row, which is clearly overcapping cps. Simming 3target patchwerk still shows that you should spend cps on envenoms/ruptures and not overcap, am i missing something here?
Can you link a log of this happening
Im sitting with a 203 ilvl bell, would it be any good in m+?
Depends on your other trinkets.
It's fine if you're rocking 213 trinkets, but loses against 226 trinkets.
oh okay then nvm, thought it would be somewhat good
Never heard of doing that...are you looking at boss damage? Your dps will always look lower because you arent a great aoe class but your ST boss damage should be very high since that is our niche
ty though
There are a few opportunities where this might occur:
- You hit the boss and get parried several times in a row
- You abuse Doomblade (Mutilated Flesh) on the cabalists that have been debuffed by Wrecking Pain.
Ok that’s fair
We havent gotten to M sire yet but on heroic prog we never prioritized wracking pain on them
It is different in mythic and heroic.
oh sry its my bad,i just noticed logs count mutilate separately for each weapon, so its gonna make 2 mutilate events for only 1 use of it
Oh yes lol it do it do
Yes because it hits with both hands.
makes sence now 🙂 i guess doing research like that at 3 am isnt the best idea 😛
I'd very much like to see the log. Please post it.
i saw it wrong,didnt notice logs create 2 events (1 for each dagger) for 1 use of muti
Oh, there are always double events for muts casting.
yeah,i didnt know that since i usually just go through sims html report, and that only makes 1 event
It's like your melee attacks. Every each hit is properly recorded.
thinking of it,it makes sence yeah
For the sake of parse, should I just muti shades on huntsman mythic and overlapping cps?
overcapping
hellloo bois
got into the ol rogue again since mythic battle for dazalor
i chose venthyr and im going ass
also because i dont have any venthyr yet
lvl 56 atm
having fun, but how do you make good use of their covenant ability
You should try an entry level guide for now
in leveling content you don't get that much significant use of it as it is a cooldown
it's almost like vendetta
also in normal dungeons the mobs in packs die so fast
while normal dungeons leveling use it on bosses
in M+ you will want to do it on prio targets with high hp
if you know you get the cooldown back until next boss, feel free to use it on any mob because you still get a small haste buff
depending on how many cp you've spent while the debuff was on the target
Tbh you're probably better off just using it on bosses and not worrying about it on packs.
yeh i use it @ 5 CP
not in m+ later on right
also i was checking the guide @ ranvedhold
i dont see ambush
Yeh, then what Kojack said stands true.
not even when were stealthed?
nope
No
!mut
Ambush is currently only used from blindside/sepsis proc, not from stealth.
The reasoning is a little complicated, but the most important of them is the difference in combo points on crit (up to 4 vs 3).
Some other factors to consider are increased poison applications, blindside, and doomblade. This is true for all talent combinations and legendaries.
tldr ^
Garrotes only with subterfuge on aoe
that's good practice for M+ 🙂
in m+ its e.planning so never ambushing it seems
do like the new animation tho !
do u guys prefer vigor or deeper strat in m+ ?
vigor
and then zoldyck insignia?
for m+ yes
Yup
only gonna run keys on this guy
and on m+
basically only crimson tempest @ 4-5 CP
and then just evenmon
You don't really get to Envenom much
so tempest, rupture, garrote
You just rupture everything around you
Yeh pretty much
You Envenom when mobs are closer to dying as applying bleeds would be a waste
Or like Kojack said when everything already has ruptures on em
Yup
had the idea that it was 3+ back in BFA
Azerite and things back then'
Hey, when you're using shiv and are going to envenom > mutilate to 5 > envenom
Do you wait for the buff of the previous envenom to fade or do you use it asap?
Like, does the last envenom snapshot the shiv buff (do you wait for the previous envenom to fade and for the last second of shiv buff)
Meaning that you get 30% of the old duration on top.
Oh okay
Do you even wait for 5 CPs ?
Or do you just shiv envenom mutilate once envenom ?
I mean you still do the normal stuff
So you always build to 5-6cp
That never changes
Shiv - Env - Muti - Muti - Env
The amount of Envenoms during the window does not matter.
Only time it changes is when you play MA and go for vanish envenom muti envenom at 4CP, right?
Incorrect
You still build to max-1
So Env - Muti - Muti
Or if you vanish earlier it's Muti - Env - Muti
Or Muti - Muti - Env
Doesn't matter. With DS you always use 2 Mutilates and 1 Envenom during the MA window when using Vanish
Now that I think about it, why does it matter if the envenom buff pandemics or not? It's still the same total duration of the buff regardless
Maybe it's blacklisted.
Huh
Looks like you're running Naowh's UI
I believe he blacklisted most non tank dots/abilities
he doesn't even track envenom
I used his WA for a while but had to edit a lot of stuff
Edit the plater profile
@limber lion So Env > Muti > Env during the MA window doesn't give more dps ?
MA is more of a cp generator
I would have thought that using Env twice during the MA window would give more dps
rather than damage amp
Not with DS.
Yeah but for ST you don't play DS right
we do
Wut
Wait
at the moment we kinda only play it in ST
By DS you mean Deeper Stratagem right
Yes
Thought you guys were talking about the leggo
not even on outlaw
I play outlaw as well so I get confused :p
I thought vigor was the go to ST
nope
depends on your character
Depends on your covenant and haste levels
you can sim and see what's better
it'll overtake pretty quickly
Reckon divine bell would be good for aoe 🤔
Okay thanks for the insight @limber lion
No.
oh no now you summoned the mastery guys
No worries mate. :)
here they come
Hehehehhe
paging osho
gonna try to change the subject though 😄 , what's a good vendetta usage on Sire? do we use on Evershade or any of the ads? 

Everyone's been talking about the dumb bell today because it's available in EU

Use where your raid leader tells you to. First kill I used 2 vendetta's in P2 and on farm just 1
You don't even imagine what it's been like on the balance druid discord since this morning
P1 once, named add (whichever your assigned to use cds on), twice in P3

you can fit in twice in P2 and twice in P3 as well if needed
Yuuuup
I wish there was another 1.30 cd trinket that gave mastery
I guess we'll see based on how fast we do p2, the guild is out of p1 now so gonna test a bit 😄
The short CD is really nice for keys

man
What are you comparing it to
people finding excuses to use low shit stuff 
Iqd/Phial
200 bell
Fair enough
Yeah we ended up needing more boss dmg on prog so my job was to double vendetta boss/remornia while others popped on adds
do you get mastery IQD
No
rip
I don't have anywhere near enough mastery
need MOAR
sounds about right, was thinking of using CT as Necro for more envenom damage with doomblade 
need to check some first kill logs and compare a bit
I need to do Prove your Worth soon
for you it was clearly better CT, but I'm thinking that SBS might be more dam
I hope that my RL won't think it's for pad though, if that's the case, I'd rather go back venthyr 😄
I don't think he'll look through everyone's talents
Bothering you guys again just to be sure of a couple things:
- with DS, if you're at 5CP, you never build to 6, right ? you instantly use a finisher
- when shiv comes off CD, but vanish is like 10s away from coming off CD, do you hold one for the other ? Or not ?
Well, I hope not.
necro,ct and db is sick damage in p2
tbf, I'd rather bring it up myself it they would care, to see that I have some logic behind my decision
- Correct.
- You sync Shiv with Vendetta. Holding Shiv for 10s is fine.
Yeh for sure.
Was comparing necro vs venth assa on denatrius mythic, these bone spears damage looks abnormal, around 10% overall , is it that great for padding there? And flag was doing like 4-5% max overall
even p3 with the bug
you get full cp from sbs I think
Regarding point 1), is it okay to shiv from 5 to 6cp still ?
in p3
Yes. You press Shiv on cd
Or do you hold shiv for the next envenom sequence
You get full cp from sbs for the first minute or so of the p3
Okay, thanks !
Regardless of if you're at max cp or 0 energy.
Allows you to start p3 with a vendetta 3x sbs assuming you didn't use it end of p2
sbs is a buggy mess tbh
sometimes on pull denathrius just evaded the spike and got 0cp
yeah it just gets parried
doesn't happen if you pull from behind
rogues do it from behind
necro was also decent for P3 since I could cloak Blood Price 1 and 3 + Fleshcraft 2nd
fleshcraft impale 
Fleshcraft is a dps loss
just realized that sbs works with both zoldyck and doomblade, now I don't know what lego to play
so is feint and vial
Yup
don't you need to get out of range
like sit in mirror zone
for link
so you don't really dps anyway
yeah you are not in range of anything when getting impaled anyway
at least not with our strat
I've noticed strats where impale targets go in a triangle near mirror
and theres barrier or link dropped on them
tbf, strtats evolve
and people used different strats months ago
some have been polished
Link gains value from having a lot of people in it
Having 3 people in it is kinda eh
Barrier is not needed, can easily spot heal after that
Nothing's happening in the fight anyways
you also can just use them since you dont need them for anything else
that as well
because, well nothing is happening
might be just what people did when they killed boss at 220 ilvl
but even 5 ilvl is big difference
I'm still triggered how people still don't hero on pull on Xymox with 225 ilvl
because they watched a video from december
with people killing it with 207 ilvl
we do something like this in mythic https://i.imgur.com/jqLSBgA.png blue = impale people / red circle boss
no cds or anything tho
dk can "immune" the knockback in overlap phase? it's a good shadowstep target I hope
Yeah
Does feint helps on denatrius? Coz bloodprice hit like a truck with feint on
warrior can bladestorm it lol
he is arms
sus
so no
No
I think we have no bop, unless we got som trial
nothing
you can feint fatal finesse on you
And i used reduced feint cost talent there... lol
but thats about it
That's the important one
it's not like we have any other good endurance
cloaked in shadows is meh in raids
it's either snd and feint/crimson
The life regen is shit too i guess?
or both
Recup and Nimble Fingies is a good combo
I use both
recup is nutty
prefer cloaked in shadows for M+
For world questing ofc and m+
but next tier we won't need cloaked
in raids recup is still nutty
because it decays when you activate it
it saves a lot of healer GCDs when you can triage yourself
in a 10 min fight it can be a lot of healing
do we wan't to cloak blood price btw?
in p3?
or save cloak for next patch?
#)
save cloak for overlap with carnage and knockback
It doesnt hit that much no? The bloodprice on p3
in last phase
It's used to run to the red shit on the floor
red shit doesnt really hurt
For the overlap
and you should shadostep it anyway

what would it save you from on overlap
You run to the red shit to get more space to move around
but you can't see massacre lines in red shit 
Yes you can
yes
Yeh exactly
well, my sire exp is 100% hc so never had to check for that
because on hc you don't need to go in red stuff
Yep
Koj you colorblind?
Because that’s a colorblind thing for sure lol
Abom limbs over swirlies? I’m fucked lmao
Ahh you're missing the Ashen hollow pre-patch ontop of it
thats why you can still see it
Ur anguish is delicious
But yeh, you can cloak Blood Prices to help healers
Or use it to run to the red stuff during the overlap
Either works
on hc I usually cloak blood price p1 if I'm not 100% hp
I definitely did it during blood price
I didn’t think about running into red tho
I guess if you cant shadowstep anyone you could cloak overlap
Personally just don't see the benefit
but you still proc cheat death
otherwise
from massacre
if you get unlucky
you can get hit mid air, right?
or lines don't start while you are mid air?
dunno I just instant shadowstep to a safe player so cant get hit
yeah, that seems like the thing to do as rogue
Just need a dk or pala
step the shaman to be safe
the enha shaman? 
You have one of those?
had one in previous guild
There's like 12
we did
they are cool
but then again we also have an arcane mage
You also have a sub rogue and surv hunter?
survival buffs though
Barely
pretty similar to assa in keys
I stand by BM shoulda been the melee class
a lot of tab targeting
if at all
The fight got so much more pleasant when warrior started using spell reflect for the mayhem knock and I got bop instead 
I wish I got a bop 
I think we don't have bop either

and shadowstep
gonna be realistic, won't see P3 tonight anyway
wat warrior can spell reflect the bump ?
It is one of the most important spells as assa
For outlaw and sub its more of an utility spell, but assa uses it as it increases our nature dmg (envenom, deadly poison)
Man, I really need the fucking SBS conduit to drop. Only having a 145 conduit is tough.
Have you done your callings and killed the WB?
Yup
it's a 100% drop from ur first calling when u switch covenant
when u dont, cov conduit drop rate is actually quite low, pretty stupid
I was renown 3 at the time though, so the item level was low
Wb is not guaranteed
Then I didn't get it from the WB
