Elaborate planning is ran on 79/100 top sin logs for council, but mutilate sims higher for me. Is the difference just for p3 100-50 and attendant burst? Or is it just their personal sim
The difference is that council has aoe and you multi-dot
Which makes elaborate planning much better
Blindside is a little ahead on 1 target, but it loses instantly on 2+
Makes sense thanks
Eternal Stats or Skirmish on the chest guys ?
skirmish seems to sim slight better, but run a sim
Doesn’t super matter
Stats will pull ahead with more targets
But for most single target and cleave it’s basically equal
Cool, transmog is probably the thing I care about most in wow! Didn't realize there was a whole channel for it here.
does recuperator proc with the snd time extension from envenom/
Yes
solido
Imagine being able to read
People do, but they want you to have the satisfaction of answering questions personally because we know you love it!
I wasn’t even the one to answer!
Can you cloak massacres on sire final phase ?
no
no
maybe if u went upstairs bro
hard mode
who is trying to do world first ranged mirror melee up top
so when the massacre + suck comes you just cloak the bad ground and then shadowstep to the tank yeah ?
Tbf sometimes I ask questions because my main class (warrior) FAQs are outdated and wrong sometimes. So I like to check to make sure these ones are up to date every once in a while.
Is envenom and ct buffed by zold heard somewhere its not
I make sure the pins in here and sub are always relevant :)
If big changes happen, pins happen

i want smoke bomb back 
i do actually read it
if i had seen it i wouldn't have asked
in conclusion i'm blind
however it weirds me slightly that people r so adverse to just answering a q
does numbing poison actually work on raid bosses or mobs in pve in general?
yes
imagining all the issues with spell queueing 
It gets pretty tiring when you see the same question over and over and over, and provide an easily accessible answer to that question, and then you still see the same question over and over
It’s not adversity to answering questions
It’s adversity to answering the same basic question for 5 months and still getting them
But I guess that’s just how information flow works in big communities
Doesn’t proliferate fast enough or not enough people care
So you’re just stuck in the loop
Like the most demoralizing thing for me is seeing people hold shiv
Because that got added almost 4 years ago in form of toxic blade, and we’ve been casting it on cooldown ever since
But it’s still a very common mistake
is vers any good for aoe? seeing many rogues running stone legion heraldry on slg
Are those rogues outlaw?
no, sin rogues
It is in on 15% in the top 100 parses, so you're not wrong. IQD only 4% :S
It's probably just an availability thing + ilvl thing (assuming you're talking about the 233 heraldry)
because a 233 SLH trinket is still pretty good w/ 2 allies in your group running it. It's just not particularly great despite the ilvl

A 220 IQD = to a 233 heraldry w/ two allies having it

@stoic needle also fun takeaway from the dslice chart: a 220 hakkar tank trinket > a 203 bell 

You are > other class pin lords

na na like i completely understand mate, i just didn't see it so ithought a question where someone could simply answer "y" was ok
i feel like it's slightly different had i asked for like soulbinds or smth 👀
From a pve perspective is there a “best” horse race? I know they are all VERY close. But I don’t like orc, undead, or BELF very much. Trying to decide what else to be and the easiest way for me to make up my mind would be for someone to tell me one of the others is best (even if it’s a lie haha)
I don't watch horse races so I wouldn't know

OUCH
Arabians for sure
best horses hands down
make sure it's either that or a thoroughbred though
I mean you can just check something like this graph
https://www.herodamage.com/rogue/races/1t-t26-assassination
and make your mind up, but it sounds like you don't really care about numbers, so probably Vulpera.
Vulpera must be out of the question since they are more like ponies and not horses.
But a serious response, just pick whichever you like best. It really doesn't matter
If a random guy on discord can influence you to race change then:
You are wrong, you need to be vulpera in order to parse
I know I know but I’m a slave to graphs
And when it shows one higher even if it’s so slight
I’m drawn to it
Pick the worst so you can always blame something if you don't perform well
I just think orc is ugly and I only went it for pvp but now I see it’s best in pve...
The question is can I allow myself to be a female orc
They look better
But... I can’t do it
You can swap every week if you want at the barber
My orc is female though, shoulders look kinda ridiculous on orc male
female orc comes with the perks of being able to pop lock and drop it with /dance
But then in pugs people think you are an actual girl and the IRL losers try to flirt. It’s so weird.
Ahhhh
Not actually the worst idea
Okay going orc female tyvm
Very productive convo

GL in the horse races
hmm i havnt looked at warcraft logs in a hot minute and i see Sin going zold for mythic generals now?
and double potency
also see some maldraxis Sin rogues up there too
O.o
what did i miss
Looking at this, any reason people are making doomblade over zol leggo? https://www.herodamage.com/rogue/legendaries/1t-t26-assassination
Class theorycrafting community, latest simulation results and resources -based on SimulationCraft- for World of Warcraft.
because it's better for ST damage
Doomblade legendary effect: 511 dps + shoulder/gloves stats at r4: 425 dps > 574 stats from slot + 238 from zoldyk
wdym
last time i checked everyone was using doom on generals
and whats with all these maldraxis Sin rogues
because the moment there's another target necro beats venthyr
and the difference in pure ST is like 80 dps
hmm damn
as for why people are playing doom over zold on SLG, I have legitimately no idea. I'm stuck in council purgatory (:
im almost 300 pulls into generals, but we're seeing P3 70% of the time
can see the light at the end of the tunnel
but i wanna die
dont think people were ever using doomblade over zoldyck on generals
idk who told you that 
IT WAS YOU PEPLE
and especially not dauntless duelist

well im swapping to zold and double potency for next week
hopefully i get a big dps boost
lul
you should try exacting preparation
i did 9.2k dps in p3 of slg on our pull with zoldyck ct
but muh poisoned katar
pk bad
you spend half of the fight mutilating
half the fight getting no value from pk
why are all these losers on logs using PK then
So what would you guys reccomend as the first legendary to make, Dooblade or Zold?
logs =/= best prog strat
do you do mythic plus as sin
I am a necro rogue atm per recommendations on this discord, but still undecided on first leggo
yea, I am going to do both
zoldyck first then doomblade
What slot, gloves I assume?
si
Really want to make a vulpwra with a saddle tmog now. Come on bliz hook it up
Where does CT fit for single target rotation? Thinking about using CT for Sire, no zold for P3 yet tho. In that type of situation does 5% buffed env > refreshing CT before it drops?
what missives would you guys recc?

Oh I think I can answer this - always keep it up OUTSIDE of shiv windows
But I clild@he very wrong
Could
crit/haste
Yeah for sure, just testing it out on the dummy I run in to a lot of edge cases where I can either env or CT when CT has like 2 seconds. So it's like do I sneak in the 5% buffed env and then refresh CT on next finisher or just refresh CT
With Zold feel like the answer is ez refresh CT but since I'm using doomblade it's 
Oh yeah I don’t know the answer to that. Honestly with rogue I feel like a lot of times I go with my gut in situations where there could really be two answers. It usually works out well because I parse well and often top DPS in m+
But I don’t know the “science” behind it
The bleed on doom blade helps too
ya the envenoms do be fat, esp with shiv
To make your life easier when you make that call, factor in the snd refresh from envenom
tru didn't think about that, thanks
Always Env inside shiv
You don't need to keep CT up all the time, it's just that outside shiv a CT does more damage than an Env
Yeah I'm NF so CT doesn't see the light of day during shiv ever
It's not something you need to keep up
yeah @balmy condor ran the numbers and not using CT in ST isn't that big of a deal, I just don't remember the numbers off the top of my head
What I do
that was like a 2 second answer
did you have that response on a macro button or something?
I’m on my phone
At work

Uhhh
Idk I’ll just go through the spiel idk how much you guys have discussed
CT and Envenom dpet is very close
Especially with zold
With doomblade it kinda spreads apart a little bit
With doomblade it’s actually nearly neutral to cast CT on 1 target vs not casting
With zold it’s worth maybe 25-30 dps
Thanks that pretty much answers my question. Regardless will be more consistent than poison bomb since sire like to jaunt around everywhere
guys do you know what is the % of drop of daggers from m+?
gap is larger for venthyr though iirc
I'm starting sire prog today, do I want to run poison bomb since it will be best for p3?
even with doomblade
we have plenty of aoe/cleave in our comp
pb is not best for p3
because of the movement
I like the answer it basically doesn’t matter. Makes me feel like I’m a mad genius no matter which one I pick.
Should doomblade be my first legendary just getting around to 60 on this alt
do you plan on raiding or doing m+ & raid
Raiding
then yeah make doom
if you want something safe in case you decide you want to push keys, craft zold
I'll be mostly raiding nothing past 15 if I do keys on this rogue
My lock has made me tired of keys lol
yeah then just craft doom on gloves w/ crit/haste
Thanks appreciate it
np
Tbh, if you end up doing keys at all, I'd recommend crafting like MA instead and going outlaw just for M+. MA is a good multipurpose one
after Doomblade that is
Another one 😄
Not sure what that means lol
Nah it's just a lot of people in here seems to be Sin only, no matter what. Some even very anti Outlaw
It's changed since BFA at least
RtB is decades better than it was
It can stay with outlaw lol ill stay assas
imagine a world where you just RtB until you have something that doesnt suck bc it has no CD
All while praying you dont get shitty rolls
Then waiting 30 seconds to reroll to get the same shitty roll
👍
I count more on the conduit ones to fill out. Get two bad rolls, then any proc will be good!
I mean the amount of time you have 4 buffs up is qutie a lot
this seems better suited for the fury warrior with pistols channel
You're a furry warrior..
It might seem like it, but it was decently on topic!
Its the assassination channel, kind of expected.
Maybe, I just don't really think most people are that polarized. Most people I talk to in game just play whatever is best or close enough to
take that back
my best parse this tier is outlaw 
Same though.
Sin parses are SO high
that or my raid group is ass, which could be both

best part is, idk much about outlaw
I played it a little in season 4 bfa and that's about it
for M+ is sin drastically behind outlaw? i'm another lifelong sin rogue, but I could be convinced if sin is just garbage
just came back, been gone since Cata
i seem to hold my own alright
Personally I lose more on mechanics/interrupts/CC specing Assa. Usually it's fine or a bit less on damage but my attention is more occupied if that makes sense. I think it's mainly trying to keep track and dot everything up asap that I might miss a cast or step in a frontal or whatever.
Damage is fine enough
And the other shit just comes with practice I assume
the dot watch is real
yeah, from what ive seen as assa (I still primarily play outlaw in keys) is that it is insane for pride, bosses, and any prio target; while still having competitive aoe on trash
but you do lose some utility like Anno said
yeah, single target isn't really an issue, even specced more aoe-oriented
the only thing that really surprises me coming back is how ret pallies aren't a joke anymore, they pop those wings and that aoe burst is so big
yeah, rets have really good ST rn too tbh
You dot one target with garrote, rupture and poison, for the energy.
can i still get renown in heroic dungeons when im at like 23?
or do I need to start doing m+
Is this info still relevant @balmy condor? So Necro is only like 150 dps behind Venthyr single target?
pretty sure is still like 150-200 yea
from the sims i saw necro sin caps out at 7200
And venthyr sin is 7300
and venth sin caps out at like 7350 i believe
You can do higher than 7200 if you use mechagnome
There are some optimizations not included in the pinned sims
Apparently Necro is only about 80 dps behind Venthyr now
Whispyr can explain some more about it
But generally just think of it as 100 and it's close enough
Alright sick, so if you prefer Necro the dps is more than acceptable
Necro is probably a safer overall pick tbh. Venthyr really blasts on Sludgefist though.
And I think that if you do the Theotar-prepot (venthyr only) shit you can parse slightly higher than sims.
(unless you sim for that ofc)
Hopefully they remove that in 9.1
I see, thanks guys! Soon we won't be doing Sludge anymore anyway heh
i am happy to say that i now hold the title for #1 venthyr rogue heroic denathrius i couldnt have done it without the pins, mashallah and ty for the knowledge i shall try to get better than blue on mythic now
Thank midmaxing too
@limber lion how does it feel to know that your sire parse has been defeated by a midmaxer?
hey no need to bully a guy trying his best
the midmax mentality is taking your friends to the top with you
If I'm trying to sim for m+...do I just do dungeon slice or patchwork 5 boss 1min?
Ah ok ty
For mobs, do I apply all the dots to one monster and then move on to the next, or am I applying dots just all over the place
DPS wise all that matters is how many targets are dotted, what order you do it in is up to you. Just dot appropriately to how long the mob is gonna live, so it's fine using 2-3 CP dots on mobs that won't live very long for example.
Never played Sin, so I'm still getting use to it LOL
hey guys, what % of haste would be good to switch from Vigor to DS?
I guess just keep simming. I'm at 19% and when I sim Virgor vs DS: V>DS by like 80ish
doesn't matter, just sim your best gear with both talent sets in top gear and it'll give you your best set up
if you like vigor and think it smooths out your rotation you can play Elaborate Planning & Vigor and be competitive w/ Blindside & Deeper Stratagem
question for sin spec: when do yall refresh garrote/rupture? ~10 seconds left of the dots? does it really matter?
!pandemic
Is there a tool that exists to show which is the best piece to upgrade with valor?
raidbots?
Droptimizer at 220
30% of the duration of the new dot being applied
Probably gonna make that a thing tbh
Can you explain further what this means? I heard about a 30% rule before but not sure how it works. Could u give an example?
5 combo point rupture has a duration of 24 seconds. If you refresh rupture with ~7 seconds or less left, whatever the duration you have left gets added to the next rupture. So if you used rupture with 5 combo points with 6 seconds remaining on the old rupture, the new rupture would be 30 seconds.
Yeh
Take new rupture being applied
5 cp is 24, 4 cp is 20 I think
So 4 cp = 20 * 0.3
20 * 0.3 is 6
So when your current rupture is at 6 seconds or less
You’re safe to refresh with a 4cp rupture
The time you clipped, gets added to the new rupture
So if you rupture with 4 seconds left
Those 4 seconds go to the new 20 second rupture
And it’s 24 seconds
It’s only the duration though
The damage is calculated on the new dot
So refreshing like a subterfuge garrote
With a normal garrote
Is giga trolling
Cause those 5 seconds you had left were an empowered garrote
And you just moved the 5 seconds onto a new, not empowered garrote
Finish at 1 less than max
even if i can garrote?
or you're saying that in response to me asking about mutilate
if you were 2 less than max CP you would mut again before finishing, yes
which is why rae said finish at 1 less than max
So refreshing with 5cp is not worth it? Is it more optimal to refresh with 4?
He said "safe" that mean 4 or 5 just add a bit of timer for the 5 cp
4 cp rupture is 6 seconds safe, 1.2 seconds per cp
5 cp would be 7.2, 6 would be 8.4, 3 would be 4.8
Garrote is a constant 18 seconds, or 5.4 seconds
After your initial rupture at 5 the refreshes only refresh timer not the dmg correct?
The damage on dots is always variable
If you get a huge mastery proc or something
Let’s say for 10% for 5 seconds
Then the dots you have put currently will benefit from that 10% mastery
For the 5 seconds
So we use vanish on the opener for a MA evenom, but when vanish comes off CD. What do we use it on?
Another mutilate? Or garrote
Mutilate over garrote
@warped temple
You use it off CD, if it’s on an envenom or finisher, whatever.
It’ll usually fall for me mut - envenom - mut or env - mut - env. I was going to see usually it’s off with vendetta, but no. Usually just cast on CD. There’s always a line where it’s close to the end of a fight and you can hold it for a thicc flag. But those are rare


Imagine losing as a WW though 
@spice spire So just use on CD, don’t try to hold it with other CDs
XD
Essentially. Again, if you won’t miss a cast and can line up with another CD - do that. But vendetta and Vanish will often already be lined up
Oxi just a budget man
I think oxi is luxurious 
You’re the best oxi I know
On the scale of oxi’s
You’re cracked as fuck

Damn, that’s a compliment. OxyContin is an option there buddy, and oxygen!
And oxyphenbutazone
Which is a medicine for arthritis
So
That’s a pretty good oxy tbh
I mean... withdraw. from markets for serious side effects
Now that you mention it, all oxys listed have deadly side effects, bone marrow suppression, addiction, and the main source of aging. Oxys low key kinda suck. Oxi is cracked tho
oxyclean cant forget about that one

the ideal way to sim for AoE/Dungeons for assassins ? Patchwerk/5 Bosses/1m30s ?
dungeon slice
DSlice ? Hmm, thought no one is using it because it's not that accurate.
it is very accurate for rogues
Alright, thanks.
When I sim with Dungeon Slice, I should put the "Weapon Oil" option on both hands right ? Or I should keep it on "SimC Default" ?
do +ap
While reading ryfie guide and I saw that he envenoms in aoe also to keep the poison application buff up, does it increase your damage in a significative way? Cause so far I pretty much ignored envenoms in aoe
does it matter wich enchant is on wich dagger?
no
Lads lads lads what stats are you stacking in sin? For raid and m+? I know this is asked alot on here
you should sim, generally crit haste for raid, crit mastery for aoe, again you should sim and not focus on secondaries too much
@tulip nacelle thank you bro thats what I thought it was nice one
Thoughts on rerolling necro in 9.1?
Pretty broad and unspecific question, is there any cool/nieche min max shit you can do with sin that isnt on any guide and such, dont know how better to ask the question
Necro is currently great and looking great in the ptr. The new necro legendary is pretty bonkers for AoE.
There's a lot of cheesy stuff you can incorporate in your gameplay, like the potion cheese, using MFD to get SnD before the pull, using Deathly Shadows before the fight (not the best on Sin) and so on.
Minmaxing assassination comes from managing your energy properly by pooling, using combo points efficiently, maximizing your potential in multi target fights, using cooldowns properly, and knowing when to use them on cooldown and when to sync etc.
^This can be applied to literally every class if you swap out a few words such as energy -> RP. Think he meant more specific
That is as specific as it gets.
It's not really a hard spec with a lot of secrets tied to it.
Ye ty for trying i get ya, i was meaning as the follows, hopefully you know dk a bit, an example would be holding rime proc if remorslas winter is comeing up and you not going to be obliting any time soon so you get an extra stack, not massive not impressive, but not on the guide and comes from competency of playing the class, wondering if such thing existed in sin that someone could say before i sink in hours to find out my self if that makes sense
Not really. There's a few things that you learn by playing
Like when playing Vigor, you Mutilate once and get to 3 combo points and you then start pooling on 3 instead of mutilating again, because you know that your garrote is about to get into pandemic range, which you can then use to get to 4 combo points without losing combo points with Mutilate.
Or you get to 3 combo points and Shiv is about to come off cooldown, so you wait for it instead of using another Mutilate, getting to 5 combo points and then using Shiv at max combo points.
Potentially wasting Mutilate's Seal Fate combo points and Shiv's combo points.
But that all ties into what I said previously, which is managing energy and using combo points efficiently.
Ye i get you, that first point you mentioned involving vigor, is that specific to vigor if so why, i dont see why you woulnt do that as MA
You do the same thing with Deeper Stratagem, but instead you build to 4 combo points.
MA is not in the same row as Vigor.
Fuck ye my bad point still stands, ty, meant DS, have to say, i am liking the hands on play style of ain, especially when 2+ targets are introduced
I just went to Necrolord, how am i supposed t ouse SBS in single target? Use it on cooldown as a builder thats all?
I just started necro too, so not 100% sure it’s the best way , on st I like to save some for vendetta if coming off cd soon, or shiv so I can get envenom or two more into shiv
SBS as your first gcd, you want to use SBS during Gemstone procs only.
Sounds good, I felt gemstones are great for mutilates , as mutilate crits are op for us , especially with doomblade, so I pooled energy before gemstones and go full blown muti env spam
Is there a wa to track gemstones?
ofc , there us a wa for eeeeverything 😂
That's a very true statement haha
So i just let them at 3 stacks until gemstone procs and blow them?
You don't want to cap them, but otherwise yes
For aoe or m+ use Heimir or Emeni?
Always heirmir
i think emeni is an outlaw thing for large aoe
so ive heard
do you think we'll be using zoldyck for execution in any of the 9.1 raid fights
or doomblade
im new to rogue and ive been looking at logs and doomblade looks so crazy
I could see Zoldyck being used in some fights, mostly Doomblade though. But thats just wild speculation at this point
I used to use zoldyck before I got doom blade
Can someone explain how phial of purification is better than a aoe trinket on aoe? I sim it all etc
It can proc on all targets you hit and scales with vers
What is the potion cheese, you're referring to?
hey, can I do mouseover macro that would check for range? I would like garrote to be cast on mouseover, but if the target is out of range to cast it on my target
Prepot with theotar refined palate then switch to Nadjia before pull
You can switch soulbinds with tome, same as talents
How much extra time does palate give you?
100-200%
you can make a wa for that that will tell you but not sure about a macro
Emeni can beat heirmir if you're good at getting resets or running double melee in keys
Congrats, this mythic?
Checked through this channel with little success on my question, I'm wondering what would be breakpoints for Assassination in terms of haste (e.g at X% of haste, your Bleed(s) tick this or that much faster)
I'm trying to figure out ideal stats, that's why :) so if there's anyone in here with any knowledge regarding this I'd really appreciate it
oh i know whats coming next 😄 check the stats of someone with bis gear maybe?
No..
You have to sim yourself for what is best for the gear you have. There are no break points and secondary stats do not matter
Its stated in the FAQ in the pinned messages
i believe that is heroic
did we ever really want x% of a stat or was this something people did before simming because people didnt know any better and went with what felt good?
will the new necrolord lego be op for assa?
probably a combination of general stat weight (not char specific), feel, and wanting to avoid heavy DR
In previous expansions there have been times where you'd want X amount of stat for a specific reason
Spec discussions are PvE based
any haste percent works for PvP sin, generally people want at least 15 to feel good
Fair, I didn't find a theorycrafting channel. Thanks!
np, the PvP channel will have tons more info regarding PvP if that's your interest
iirc the in game macros don't allow for any sort of if statements, so no that would be impossible sadly :(
yeah thought so, thanks
@gloomy rose you can try to overlap the commands
let me try something out and ill get back to you
Yeah you could maybe do something with the /console targetNearestDistance command, but dunno how to implement that into a mouseover. And I dunno if any similar commands even exist 
should i craft zoldyck insignia on legs on feet
yeah no i dont think the base macro system works
prob would need a WA or advanced macro toolkit for something like that
yee
base macro system has no range check
yeh, a check would imply a if cus no point in having a check without a if/when
thanks for trying though
Thanks!
@limber lion I got into a heroic sire pug at 3am in hopes I could beat your parse, had a warlock pulling 2.1k dps and I decided to leave
your parse is safe for now
I had a few good tries but idk if I could manage to do it 
2.1k is definitely a feat especially if you don't die
I'm like 160, a fresh 60 rogue and could do that kind of DPS :/
I'm sure you can!
Yeah the dude started complaining that people were killing the adds to fast 
“Pls don’t kill adds during the line thing”
“You have left the group.”

Oh boy.
Well my new guild private logs, so won't be seeing me on the mythic leaderboards next tier
Legs

I don't really understand private logs
You’ll be there in my heart

Not a thing anymore
Also, why the hell does every addon turn on and the whole UI reset whenever you realm transfer >:(
Yeah all the top guilds do it, and I don’t get it either
Because blizzard saves your UI stuff in a server folder and then a character folder
You can copy it over from your wtf folder to the new server
Yeaah it's no biggie, just annoying.
They don’t have the technology 
I was just about to say
cuz top guilds, due to their schedule, and specially your guild is finnish only, only have a very limited pool of player to pick from, so getting poached a guy that is good, finnish and can raid their extended hour would be very bad
Surely they have the technology to see what addons/ui settings my character uses and transfers them with the character on the new realm.
as they might not find a suitable replacement
so lots of top guilds private logs to avoid poaching
Yeh, fair enough
The 🍝 code won’t allow it
also they dont want log whores i
but to avoid poach is a huge part
Guess I really do have to start farming Heroic logs in 9.1 then
a lot of private logs guild have hc logs public tho
I feel like that won’t end up doing much to avoid poaching tbh. If you’re in a top 100 guild in the world, you could easily get poached by anyone just for being a raider for them ya know?
still don't get why ppl farm logs 
yeah but sometime u just dont know the guy
like idk do u think method or w/e knows every raider a finnish guild has
if u see a guy has all rank 1 in mythic by just clicking on wcl top all star
and is in a mid ranked guild
True. I can see the logic behind it for sure
This just means whatever mythic parses I get will be higher than Cev’s 
as u said, like a guy from ur guild dips for a better guild, talk about you, so their recruitment officer poach you
all those are things that happens
@limber lion I’ll finally beat you due to semantics 
he'll be 10/10 when we'll be 3/10 
That's like saying "I don't understand why people do pilates"
Because they want to
They enjoy doing it
You don't need to like it
it's fun
But it's fun for some of us.
without logs chasing reclear is boring
Pilates
I loved our heroic parse runs tbh

just private log yourself. you always have it then.
Got to see everyone fully focused for once
Oh shit, good point I didn't even think about it.
That’s why he doesn’t stream with a cam on 
It was just an example, fuck pilates.
Apparently it's the best thing for classical musicians and helps strengthen your core muscles
yeah fuck meeting attractive women that are flexible.
The problem is you have to be flexible as well
you actually don’t. “i need help”
Yeah you do
awe look at the struggling guy over there
My girlfriend got worried when I showed her how not flexible I am
Like I can't lay on the bed and put my feet up and have them be straight
tell ur gf ur not flexible but ur in wr 30 guild 
“I’m a pumper”

I flex in-game, not irl
I try to hide my World of Warcraft addiction from my personal life
Raid night: “Let’s grab dinner?” “Sorry, working late”
lying
I used to do that, now I just don't care
just say you're about to game
I’m a lawyer, it’s practice for work
hello mom yes i wont eat with u tonight i have raid xoxo
My gf always gives kisses and tells me to have a good raid

so u admit ur job is just lying ?

That’s adorable af 
me and who ?
Yeah and then I trial with a guild that wipes on heroic xymox for an hour

whats the Exsanguinate-looking debuff that keeps popping up on Plater?
My job is to make my clients leave me alone. So “it’s processing” usually means I haven’t bothered filing yet
i want it gone lol

Doomblade
Too soon 
ahhhh
did u find a new one ?
It’s called mutilated flesh
tyty
I trialed with oxi’s guild
go fucking beat oxi's ass on god
It was an alt run okay
although the idiots on their mains weren’t much better
what's ur prog?
They’re 6/10, couldn’t kill sire on heroic alt night, and then struggled to rekill hungering and inerva on thursday

Best pull on council was Niklaus to 25% before we got overwhelmed
My girlfriend just asks "do you have to raid tonight
"
Hey, I said that too
I did not 
I just joined discord and they were chanting in some weird language I didn’t understand, I blacked out and woke up after we wiped on shriek
It was all over
ur kills timers 
I haven’t been quite transparent about the idiots that populate the bottom quarter of the raid. It’s just a few of our good raiders are on break until 9.1 so we’ve filled in with more potatoes. Some are just moldy now instead of regular potatoes.
Like senreth. The back pedaling hunter
4 fucking people died to the red circle of doom 
Had they survived that first intermission it would’ve been fine. But they walked in with bravado and thought they could face roll it
Not realizing 6 people in the raid team could be replaced by a broom in a computer chair that’d perform better
I’m in the process of poaching 4-5 people from a guild that I know can do mechanics properly. If we can get them, we’ll be fine. If we can’t, I’m going to go on hiatus until 9.1 and personally pimp out Whispyr to new guilds 
As my way of saying I’m sorry
i mean if u wanna invest time into that u do u
I promised the GM I’d stay until 9.1 when I first joined. So they have me until then.
I hate that fucking strat
LOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOL
Feels like that is happening everywhere. Lots of people don’t want to play until 9.1. We were 6/10 And now can’t raid. Luckily most of our shitters wanted a break and now we are taking 8 of our good guys and merging with another guilds
who is this absolute demon monk
So hopefully that makes us better who knows.
what strat is that ?
I had cloak though
It’s even funnier when you realize the guy who did it is a blast from Whispyr’s past
Where you have the raid stack and the circle boys dip in to heal
Instead of the other way around
i mean it's a bit hard cloaking something u have no idea will happen until like 0.2sec before ur death
Where the circle boys stand still and people come in to heal
cant they just make group like everyone else
Yeah 4head anticipate the monk rolling to narnia with the beam
No no we tried that and our ranged showcased how mentally deficient they are and they failed that strat a thousand times

You’d think an easier strat would work better. But we have some real gamers who are missing brain matter
Like our most vocal warlock who bitches about melee messing up on every boss 
@balmy condor I want to stab death in the face.
Sounds like a great environment

i frankly dont know why u're wasting ur time there
Come trial with my guild they said
He literally cried on council prog and rage quit during the prog night about melee “going to fast” and it was a mage who hit him with the dark recital 
But then again Flower
honestly any 8/10 or 9/10 woulld accept a guy that has purple/blue logs
I hate that strat too. The IRT one is just super easy
Idk about that man. It’s tough to just guild hop with mediocre logs at 6/10

yeah i had a guild reach out to my monk who was 0/10m to progress slg, solely cuz of my monk hc parse
they didn't know my main had CE
Given our awful kill timers his logs weren’t terrible 
Yeh
literally 8/10 or 9/10m guild are desperate for players
But like I think it's just fair that Whispyr gets to struggle a bit
Top damage across all kills

I mean, we struggled when we progressed the bosses the first time
The two rogues were top damage 
i mean there's struggle and frankly waste of time
I mean
I might have an in with a CE guild
If you join a new guild that starts progression now
So
You'll be slower with them
That might be a thing
Than joining a shitty 6/10 guild
like yes it's fine to get in p bad guild to start with
but guilds that are currently 8/10 or 9/10 are not that good either
Even if it's a shitty guild, it's still better than starting from zero


The thing is, when we were raiding with our core we progged super quick. If you check our wow progress numbers our pull to kill ratios were good enough to be 8/10 easily. We were missing 1 really good dps and then other people started disappearing
Do they need m+ Andys? 
I’ll go in as a m+ social player
honestly whysp hc logs are enough to warrantee him into a pretty decent guild
cuz hc logs for mythic raiders are irrelevant
since they have mythic gear
and usually get parses from boosts or cheese runs
And massive cocks
but it's another thing having 99 with a casual guild
I agree fully
Anyone can find a guild if you look hard enough.
Tbh I’m about to just join whispyr’s guild while he goes down in the mythic shenanigans
Go get CE, I’ll keep your seat warm in your old guild @balmy condor 
@deep wharf

last week demoralized me from raiding pretty hard lol
my guilds team just basically said we arent raiding any more till next patch so lmaooo
idk if I can manage another tier like this. I may just uninstall the game
i was an absolute shitter in 8.3, with shit logs and the guild i got in first for sl is 10/10m atm
Is assa venthyr?
Exactly.
it's a lot easier getting into guilds than people think if u can sell yourself well enough
For pure ST yes
Necro becomes better once there are adds
and whyspir can easily sell himself
kty
You probably won't find a guild if you apply to 3 top 100 guilds and nothing else
If you apply to 50 different guilds at top 500+
You can easily find one
Just join my guild, do what I never could, recruit a mythic group, and then get stuck on roster boss again

So what I’m going through now? 
Besides Goob none of the other officers are doing anything
but yeah frankly oxi u should dip too
One of them plays Valheim and raid logs lol and then complains about raid performance
like u said u'll be there until 9.1
but no one does anything except u
just leave
w/e if u make 1 or 2 nerds angry
Goob wants to make me an officer when I told him I’m trying to get us 4 solid raiders 
dont accept lol
u're only a raider right ?
I was asked to become an officer in 2 of my previous guilds as well lol.
Oh I told him absolutely not unless I get a the freedom to boot the shitters
That plan died real quick 
i dont see why u would promise to stick out until the next patch if ur not even an officer
if the actual officers and gm dont do shit and u have to recruit despite being none of those that's a red flag
Because it’s my first time progging since wrath of the lich king, and guild atmosphere is big for me. I trialed for a mythic guild in 8.3 and they were douchebags and I’ve never felt more miserable logging in
ur ui is great
@balmy condor
Plus I don’t think I’m any good tbh. I view myself as an above average player

@frail fossil where it has been shown?
his twitch tv
wait
But I’m 110% a Whispyr simp, but this is the season I beat him on the assa leaderboards

It’d just be clips of him yelling obscenities at SimC
“Oh yeah you fucking like that? When I change your apl? Yeah you’re really fucking bad I bet I can find a couple tenths of a percent out of you”

I’d pay good money to see your reactions to some of the questions that float through
Ok just did

Really cool ui, clean
Thank you :)
I would compliment your UI but you roasted me for 2 days and made me redo my entire UI so I’d be less self conscious 
post ui
That's 7 times more expensive than in Kazzak
Is the ui shared somewhere?
Will do as soon as I get to my pc
The most fun I’ve had simming was the whole “sitting in stealth with master assassin” thing people tried at the start of the expansion
Yes! One second
Those last 2 seem like a really good deal
it's a loss right ?
u dont sit for seconds while ur dots crit right
Huge
Sitting in stealth with MA for even like 4 seconds was a 3% loss I think
Or maybe 4%?
Thank you, btw really great podcast at Marcelian's
thank you

Tomes were legit 40g in Kazzak, why are they 280g here >:(( I'm not Seli who has multiple characters at gold cap, I'm poor af
Is that when they butchered his name? 
The description was wrong 3 times
just say u were featured in a marcielian vid in ur guild app 

VVhyspir
Vyspyr
halo i am figurine of rogue adn i make very good podcast with youtube
figurine
hm
Hallo i Play rouge and i was wondering if you have a moment to speak with our lord and savior obedience
I have the sacred scriptures here
taps raidbots
I love raidbots wdym
Akaari gaaaaarbage
But I heard dslice isn’t reliable 
Get that shit out of my class
Someday ill make a ui for simcraft
I heard it’s reliably wrong
Well that’s what raidbots is for
I mean for proficient users its fine but for the random noob its not.
The random noob doesn’t need simcraft tho
Like yeah the cockpit of an airplane is confusing
But not everyone needs to be a pilot
Me and a friend talked about making one but doing a new db to nit have to relay on wowhead is just to much work.
Just simply it abit. Add sockets with clicks drop down menu for items etc. Nothing super fancy
Thst was the idea atleast.
Drop down menu for items would be kinda miserable to deal with from both a coding and a user viewpoint
? You click the item slot search your item select it chose socket and ilvl and click it.
That’s not a drop down is it 🙂
Yeah that’s my point, we used to have that back in the day with the old rogue excel spreadsheet we used and it was miserable on both ends lol
But like i said, building the ui is easy but making the db for it is jusy to much work.
But hey man, ideas of fixing stuff up could lead to your own front end for SimC which could end up being extremely successful. Don’t write that idea off just yet
I wanted it to be completely client side. So there wouldnt be any time lag for people.
You just sesrch the time click it add socket select ilvl and bam. Done.
If we would use apl from wow head it would be much slower.
I add sockets with like 2 seconds of typing
Yeah but who is it for
The people who aren’t me and editing APL and shit have all the things you mentioned
Add a gem? Top gear has a drop down
A way to search items? That’s gear compare
Droptimizer even sims all the items you don’t have
For people who wanted to use simc on their own pc but without any limits for example. I know thst raidbot is pretty much that already.
Like i said it was an idea to make a frontend ui for simc.
That’s what raidbots premium is for
Imo you either pay for raidbots sub or learn how to edit your own simc. Pretty easy
Yeah
And you don't even have to pay for raidbots if you REALLY don't want to
If you really want to use simc locally, and you’re trying to do something that raidbots doesn’t allow due to iteration limits
Then you’re a very very niche individual
And I think it’s perfectly reasonable thing to just let those 15 people just learn simc
Maybe but having that option even if its niche is better no?
Yes having things are better than not having things
I mean you just have to consider the work for the people creating such niche thing
But it ain’t worth it man
I mean it wouldnt just be for those people. Its foe me aswell lol as an aspiring ux designer its good practice lol
Yeah I mean I guess
You’d have to maintain it and shit too
Idk sounds like a headache to me
That episode of Big Bang theory comes to mind when they develop an app with a marketgroup of 10 or so 🙂
I think adding code snippets for people that don't know the code for X thing but wanna get started with it helps
What about all the updates? Sounds a lot of work to implement all the hotfixs
Like how to add a gem/increase itl or w/e. But I wouldn't go further than making a code snippet.
A fully fledged UI sounds like something very annoying to use & maintain which only a few individuals would cater to
Like i said, in a project like that is that once the UI is there it wont need much changes unless you want to change something. The annoying part is building and maintaining the DB.
just my 2c abour local simc
while you can run "unlimited" sim combinations
i think people underestimate just the time those super big sims take
Yeah, i know fuu. Its pretty intense on your machine. :X
To the regards of the db it is possible to write a script that snipes the ID of an item off wowhead but that defeats the purpose of it being completly client side and would slow down everything.
Localy* not client side D:
I'm tired 😐
you can queue up items/spells in simc
ignore sound, i had msi open in the background
Aye
i am not sure what you try to achive
The vision was just to make a simplified version of simc for a very niché amount of people.
1 was practice for me to build ui's and ux
Doesn’t sound lazy to me
you can build a electron frontend for simc and parse the json to it
ew, electron
electron, react native, etc... all of them are very nice if you work focused on ui
There’s a GitHub wiki for exactly that
^
y
or do you talk about modifying the simc source
because apl should cover most use cases of simc
what would be the target group for your project?
people who want to sim local can already do so with the cli or gui version
I just learnt to do shit by myself, but if there's already something for that, the UI is definitely not needed :p
I learned everything from the wiki tbh
the majority is quite straight forward
I only had some minor questions about setting up the workspace through Vscode and then some things I was too blind to find on my own
Yeah it’s not that bad
also esp. rogue apl has a lot of comments so you will find yourself a explanation if something is not straight forward
not sure what you ask for?
this is not the place to ask rly
Just make a group yourself
Guys, can I get a quick opinion piece? My 210 Zoldyck sims +193 DPS higher over 235 Doomblade in 3 minute execute patchwerk (looking for the most DPS to finish Sire prog)
yes zoldyck is better in execute than doomblade
Well
But considering Sire starts at 40.5% and the sim starts at 20%, is it worth it going for Zoldyck?
Yeah @devout hazel this isn’t LFG, please do not ask about group forming. There’s other discords or in game that can handle that, we don’t really like that around here :)
I posted some Sire sims here earlier you can look them up
Sweet, thanks. Was just wondering due to Sire starting at 40.5% and therefore having a DPS loss til 30%. I'll check it out, thanks.
Aha
Pretty sick, is there I way to replicate that sim?
But ye, take it with a grain of salt.
Or a mountain of it
Sire obviously has a lot of mechanical stuff and downtime
I would be curious how the results match up with a regular execute patchwerk
I assume pretty similar
which slot should you craft zoldyck on ?
They claimed Doomblade was better than Zoldyck
Legs
Morning
Because P3 starts at 40
thanks whispyr
Had a quick question... How is Assin Necrolord doing ?

Good.
I would 100% use Zoldyck if i had it 235, but I was curious if i could sim it more accurately with the ilvl diff
That’s what we all run here
So
Pretty good
The ilvl doesn't matter that much
@balmy condor So Necro Assin is the way to go then.... omg lol ill switch from Venthyr then I guess
Venthyr is fine
But yeh, execute pw is pretty similar honestly
Necro is just more cleave/aoe
Yeah, I need that! I run Mythic plus
If you give me your profile, I can use the sim to sim you.
Gotcha, I guess I will try Zoldyck a few pulls tonight and compare it to last weeks' Doomblade P3 DPS
Venthyr atm is parse cheesing with theotar
Me?
Yes.
I don’t see much of a reason to run it otherwise
run what otherside?
The only reason I swapped was because of Theo. Fuck Venthyr.
should i use missives of what stat weight's suggest or specific ones when crafting zoldyck legs?
Theotar?
ohh! another thing, what stats should I be looking for for Mythic plus?
Crit Mastery?
Theotar has double pot duration, so you can prepot with double duration, and then swap to venthyr
Crit > mastery/haste/vers
They’re all close after haste
Usually just take highest ilvl you can, and look for crit
thats for M+ and Raid?
perfect! thanks
📌
What conduits do you guys recommend? I am using WPS and Maim, Mangle in my potency
Not those.
Which covenant are you?
