As an all around

They’re meant as introductory guides

I mean sure

rotund oak

#

but you don't want to introduce to the wrong information, right?

limber lion
#

EP/Vig and DS/BS only see play when you get more gear.

#

Pretty sure BS/Vig is still the go-to at lower item levels.

final star
#

Personally rather play with what I'm gonna play with

#

but that's personal preference not actuality

balmy condor
#

If you have a problem with it, I’m sure you can ask the guide writer yourself

final star
#

ya like I said it's personal preference; I'd rather have a guide that showed me what I'm gonna be playing decently geared

#

than what I play with when i'm pepo level geared

limber lion
#

But that's just you.

whole mason
#

It is just interesting for this part. I think there is kind of gear levels between builds. And yet we don't have haste break.

limber lion
#

A lot of people rather play what's best for their current gear/setup and change it up as they get more gear and progress further.

Why do you care about the guide then anyways?

#

You're simming like 6.9k

#

It's obviously not for you.

final star
#

It applies to all guides

#

not just the rogue one

balmy condor
#

The best part about an opinion is that you can choose to keep it yourself

#

It’s like a secret only you know

#

Very cool

final star
#

and you can also choose to ignore it

mighty bolt
#

There are some people who never will reach the good gear because they are just casual players but they like to have a guideline

balmy condor
mighty bolt
#

When u interested on min max, u start searching different points of view and more info, so u understand there is another way than the basic guide

Who cares man

#

The guides accurate

in the end, no-one

balmy condor
#

No one asked whether Kieron the ravenholdt user thinks the talents are in order

final star
#

except I have had 2 people in the past 24hours ask me

balmy condor
#

You must be very popular to have people asking you about a guide you didn’t write

#

I don’t remember the last time I got a question about a guide

final star
#

too popular

balmy condor
#

God you’re insufferable

#

never said it was funny

#

just don't take everything someone said to heart

balmy condor
#

So it’s not even funny shitposting

#

It’s just shitposting

final star
#

wasn't even shitposting

#

what I said about the guide was true

#

what I said about people asking me about the guide

#

is true

balmy condor
#

If it smells like shit... and it looks like shit....

final star
#

just you literally took it as me spouting gospel

#

and chose to get riden up about it

balmy condor
#

You criticized a guide for no reason

#

And then backpedaled with “just my opinion tho”

final star
#

I criticized it because I didn't agree with it

balmy condor
#

As if anyone asked

final star
#

There wasn't no reason

balmy condor
#

Well then why say it

final star
#

because I can?

#

why do you say anything

balmy condor
#

Because people ask questions

#

And I answer them

final star
#

literally understanding that half the time

#

people don't care about anything you or I have to say

balmy condor

Do you not understand how this channel works

do you guys actually make sims for others?

balmy condor
limber lion
#

it's like 10 clicks, not too bad.

final star
#

might as well use the 16M iterations for people who can't do that

thin imp
#

oh raidbots actually includes the vault 😮

balmy condor
#

It’s not like a “hey sim me”, but more of people checking to see if they’re missing something

#

Which is fine

thin imp
#

can you guys do me a favour?

These are the questions only whispyr can answer

thin imp
dawn ivy
#

yeah sockets on rings are hard to get rid of

final star
#

usually sockets contribute a lot on jewelry

thin imp
#

I guess that it weights more in jewerly since it doesnt give agi

slow marsh
#

Indeed

odd hazel
#

@balmy condor how did raid go ?

shell kettle
#

🤔

Maybe so but 16 stat is 16 stat.. its not more or less on any other item

Would recommend you socket bis gear first so you dont throw away sockets

balmy condor
odd hazel
final star
#

let's see if we add a socket

#

to your 226 GV ring

thin imp
#

16 stats is 16 stats but a chest piece with a socket 213ilvl gives you less agility than a non socket chjest piece 226 and agility weights more so its easier to upgrade non jewelry gear

final star
#

if it goes ahead of your 207

balmy condor
odd hazel
#

ouchhh

thin imp
#

obviously 16 secondary stats will give the same in any other piece tho

final star
#

by 7 whole dps

thin imp
#

meh quite late to farm venari reputation to work for that socket

final star
#

are you exalted with her on any characters>

odd hazel
#

i farmed venari for conduits mainly, if i get conduits cool

thin imp
#

also first time seeing eternal skirmish over eternal stats

dawn ivy
#

ive been skirmish since 9.0.5 at least

slow marsh
#

Yeah same

final star
#

same

odd hazel
#

Same

shell kettle
#

Afaik skirmish is static value so better in less gear. Stats would maybe be better in full bis

thin imp
#

I see, I will swtich the enchant then

slow marsh
#

Just sim it

balmy condor
#

I’m stats for m+

thin imp
#

for a whole lot of 17 dps increased

balmy condor
#

But skirmish is slightly better in low target counts

#

So

#

If you only raid

odd hazel
balmy condor
#

Go for it

thin imp
odd hazel
#

give you higher chance to get better powers, doesnt let the first death count agianst you/etc

#

torghast upgrades worth getting for 9.1 too

odd hazel
#

yeah its not to bad, got to conduit ranking in like 4 weeks or so? im not sure on the exact time it took but it wasnt to bad. could make it faster by doing both weekly and daily stuff.

final star
#

so it's good value

#

I still need 3-4 sockets myself cos I neglected it

odd hazel
#

i wish i did it sooner for the sockets to sit on

final star
#

else I'd be hard gunning for the conduit upgrades

#

sucks you can only hold one socket item at a time

#

else you gotta hold stygia

#

and not fall off the edge

odd hazel
#

i have a nice 226 blood oath signet that could use a socket

final star
odd hazel

i mean

#

do you want to tell the class something kieron

Should you use all of your SBS charges during sludgefist pillar or just during gemstones as usual?

balmy condor
#

Pillar

teal bloom
#

ty

odd hazel
#

is necro play just, Use at start----- then use the rest during gem stones? do you let it cap at 3? ( Obviously if theres things like inerva you dot all 3, let sire you dot as many adds as you can in P3 )

#

or like sire like you just said dumping during pillars

dawn ivy
#

never let it cap at 3

#

hello guys, why raidbots show bigger DPS results Ilvl weapon on my off-hand? is it a bug?

odd hazel
#

prob is just showing importance of OH due to poison procs. But it doesnt matter really. ( i think ?)

but the bottom of your stats should be just weapon damage.

this is the results tho

odd hazel

can you link it?

dawn ivy
#

make sure when youre simming weapons that you check all viable weapons for both main hand and off hand

undone lodge
#

all?

dawn ivy
#

ah no nvm you did

undone lodge
#

lol

#

@odd hazel so what do you think? should i follow the results or just put higher ilvl on my MH?

odd hazel
#

i mean, the results are showing it as better to be in your OH. so unless something is off i would follow it

#

not like it'll make or break you if you do or dont atleast

#

im just not sure What is causing the OH to be better exactly. better poison procs maybe?

undone lodge
#

ah okay, this why sometimes simming results is more confusing than not simming it lol

It's because it wasn't changing mh enchant

Or it was trying to add only sinful revelation

Anyway, my sim has fixed the issue

#

Make sure that you resim weapon enchants when trying new weapons KNYinothumbsup

undone lodge
final star
#

No it was because you didn't try and sim replacement enchants

#

So it didn't try and change the ones that already existed

undone lodge
#

oh my 😅

#

Main hand is Sinful and OH is Celestial? @final star

final star
#

Doesn't matter iirc

#

I have celestial on mh cos I use it for outlaw too

spice spire

It does not matter is correct

final star

And my outlaw already had sinful mh

spice spire

None of my hands are sinful, pure gameplay only prayge

#

is there a good guide out there that isnt icy veins? it lead me in completely the wrong direction.

late birch
#

On a fight like dena, do i even bother putting CT up again during Shiv window or do i just get out as much envenoms as i can?

odd hazel
kindred kettle
odd hazel
#

what?

#

what does it conflict with.

#

also, subcreation?

limber lion
#

My boy.

odd hazel
#

thats why ive never heard of it

#

lmao

kindred kettle
#

it isnt?

limber lion
kindred kettle
#

honestly idk! lol

limber lion
#

I think he's doing pretty well and looks like he knows a thing or two.

limber lion
#

Oh lookie, he's also on the side bar along with the rest of the Community Figures

kindred kettle
#

well subcreation seems legit because they compiling data from many different players(????)

#

and you can see it

odd hazel
#

icy veins is a fine site

#

im not sure why you think other wise

kindred kettle
#

contrasted with one person's recommendation

odd hazel
#

that one person who does very well and is knowledgeable

limber lion
#

What are you looking at and where is the conflict then?

#

Subcreation is honestly fine for most things.

kindred kettle
#

talents, covenants, gear

limber lion
#

It just doesn't look at talent/legendary/covenant combos (afaik) and only everything separately.

odd hazel
#

what exactly are they saying different

kindred kettle
#

conduits

odd hazel
#

like

#

what

#

what conduits

kindred kettle
#

different legendary

odd hazel
#

as in?

limber lion
odd hazel
#

that looks right to me

#

?

limber lion
#

Both are saying the exact same thing my boy

odd hazel
#

go into detail pelase other then just "conduits, leggo etc"

civic trellis
#

I learnt to use sins following that guide

#

I guess I should look for other guide? /s XD

kindred kettle
#

well they recommend night fae

odd hazel
#

night fae is fine tbh, any cov is.

kindred kettle
#

most people seem to go for ven though. and im necro for some reason

limber lion
#

Most people choose between Venthyr and Necro.

kindred kettle
#

and then they recommend ven because of the potency conduit so theyre even contradicting themselves

civic trellis
#

?

#

XD

odd hazel
#

thats correct though

limber lion
#

Wut

charred wraith
#

Another dumb question about sire, do we hold vendetta and vanish with MA anywhere? (obv except if the intermission is soon)

limber lion
#

You just use them according to your assignment

#

The norm is 1 Vendetta P1, 1 Vendetta P2 (on named add) and 2 Vendettas in P3.

kindred kettle
#

so which is the best? if they recommend one then the other

odd hazel
#

Venth for ST, necro for anything more then one target

kindred kettle
#

ok

odd hazel
#

but

#

realistcally

#

it doesnt matter, you can compete with any covenant

kindred kettle
#

fair enough

#

that reassuring. i guess i was just taken aback by how different i looked on paper to the top DPS on subcreation.

odd hazel
#

why are you so head strong on subcreation

kindred kettle
#

im not necessarily. its just that its not recommendations per se. more so just data

odd hazel
#

i mean

#

warcraft logs

#

this is literally the first i've herad of subcreation

teal bloom
#

Is it normal that sbs gives me 1 fewer combo points than it should very commonly?

odd hazel
#

thats a bug i believe, not sure if its the same thing though

civic trellis
#

Btw What is subcreation?

kindred kettle
#
odd hazel
#

why not just use warcraft logs?

kindred kettle
#

im not a paid spokesperson i swear lol its just something i was shown by someone else and thought it was interesting.

odd hazel
#

this site

#

does not look good

kindred kettle
#

ok

#

well then thats fine. because i was hoping to ignore it

#

if im on the right track already that is

vestal wren
#

but some people just love the idea of small websites that often have information presented in a non obvious or misleading way

odd hazel
#

it just seemed weird, i will agree that ICy veins does present some choices in a different way

kindred kettle
civic trellis
#

Guys do you think Hateful Chain oversims a bit?

kindred kettle
#

again im not hoping to argue. just add it to a list of things i can ignore

odd hazel
#

i mean, im sure the site is fine but theres real no reason to use it over things like wcl or R.io for that information.

civic trellis
#

On most fights my phial 220 does more damage than my 226 hateful chain but chain sims over phial

#

ST fights

odd hazel
#

prob cause in reality you're not benefiting from chain as much as phial

#

but in a sim situation it could.

civic trellis
#

Why not?

#

I thought healing and dps procs have separate ppms

spice spire
civic trellis
#

so it shouldnt matter

#

I've read that somewhere here iirc

sinful cradle
#

If your hp is lower than the target the trinket wont dmg

civic trellis
#

But ppm are the same

spice spire
#

Yeah - so If you’re consistently at 80% while boss is 90%, you’ll get 0 PPM for damage. PPM is independent of each other in the case of your health being fairly constant but topped off

#

But the rule of the trinket remains the same

undone lodge
#

oh one other thing, my DPD shown on Raidbots is 6k+ but my actual DPS (non hectic boss eg. Altimor, Xymox, etc) is only about 4.5-4.6k at best, is it close enough to a good rotation or not?

#

DPS*

civic trellis
#

Or does ppm work only while the trigger is active?

spice spire
#

Only works while trigger is active iirc

civic trellis
#

Ah damn that's it then

spice spire
#

Common mistakes are overcapping Combo points, wasting energy, and maintaining uptime on boss

odd hazel
#

also make sure you're simming with the raid buffs you have

undone lodge
spice spire
#

If you have any logs, a lot of people here will look at them!

undone lodge
#

too embarassed to share it tho 😅

#

i think im skillcapped most of the time lol

odd hazel
#

we all start from somewhere my guy

plain onyx
#

!guide

undone lodge
#

is wowanalyzer reliable?

desert inlet
#

think it doesn't work for sin atm

#

it should say when you try

spice spire
#

It’s sketch

#

I totally did the irresponsible thing and looked anyway - a lot of combo points are wasted. Remember for your finishers, you do max-1. So finishing on 4 is fine for any envenom or rupture

undone lodge
odd hazel
#

its also fine to reapply rupture with low combo points, i believe thats preferable then letting it fall off.

undone lodge
spice spire
#

Hey we all started somewhere

undone lodge
#

so please beat me with your teaching mastah prayge

odd hazel
#

so

#

the thing i see

#

automatically

#

you let your rupture fall off A LOT

#

garrote should also be higher

spice spire
#

And if that’s the case, you just spam mutilate too much. You waste a lot of CP on mutilate a lot. And I hadn’t even touched rupture yet

#

So that’s two very big dps increases

odd hazel
#
  • just looking at hungering* you let garrote fall of fa bit, you only had rupture up 78% of the time
#

you wasted 59 combo points on mut, 28 on seal fate, 10 on garrote, 2 on sepsis

desert inlet
#

not as big, but you can save some cp/energy/time in the opener by doing Mut -> SnD -> Mut and then Envenom will keep Slice and Dice going the rest of the fight

undone lodge
#

i think i beter fixed my tunnel vision habit

spice spire
#

Seal fate is sometimes avoidable - but the rest of it is. Only CP you should waste are seal fate and shiv both are excusable.

And a lot of it is just practice. Any time you have a question you’re more than welcome to ask here. We want rogues to succeed prayge

civic trellis
odd hazel
#

yeah, we all started some where

#

the biggest problem is never asking for help

final star
#

This is my cp gain on hc hungering as an example

#

the overcap/wasted are unavoidable

#

But focus on building to 4-5CP

#

and spending

#

even if you slow down your play

undone lodge
civic trellis
#

Well if you are nervious is hard to think ahead

final star
#

rn u are killing boss, so it's good time to improve

civic trellis
#

that's the biggest dps loss 😛

undone lodge
final star
#

seal fate is a proc

#

when you crit

#

you generate an extra cp

undone lodge
#

so how to know when it procs?

final star
#

it procs when you crit

#

you don't play around it

desert inlet
#

you'll know because you'll get an extra combo point or two

undone lodge
desert inlet
#

seems like you're mutilating when you have full CP instead of using a finisher

#

esp here on Sludgefist

#

do you have WAs that track your combo points and bleeds? think it would help

final star
#

sepsis generates 3 CP

#

you want to use it at 2 or less CP

undone lodge
final star
#

or is it 1CP

undone lodge
#

is there anything i can log this convo LOL

final star
#

I haven't been night fae in a minute

desert inlet
#

pretty sure it gives 1

final star
#

yeah it's 1

#

looked it up

#

so use it at 4 or less CP

#

5 or less if deeper stratagem talented

undone lodge
#

i'm capturing this convo, wait, lol

final star
#

be aware of the base CP that your abilities generate

#

and play around that

#

keep your bleeds up at all times, refreshing in pandemic range

#

make sure you shiv on cooldown

undone lodge
#

so the key is to finish at 4 CP, dont overspam mutilate, dont let garrotte adn rupture falls off

final star
#

4-5CP

#

since you are vigor

undone lodge
#

what i do when CP is full when finishers arent ready yet?

final star
#

finishers are always ready

undone lodge
#

ahhh ok ok, just put everything on envenom than rupture?

#

or the other way round?

final star
#

You refresh rupture when required

#

Else you envenom

#

I won't go in to pooling effectively yet cos it's already big info overload

#

Focus on your bleed uptime

#

Get them to 90% or better

#

For now

#

And focus on not overcapping on combo points

undone lodge
#

bleed uptime means garotte and rupture right?

final star
#

Yes sir

thin imp
#

how do you see the cp wasted?

final star
#

Resources > combo points

undone lodge
thin imp
thin imp
undone lodge
whole mason
#

keeping up bleed at 99% or close to it is an essential practice habit. It gets you learning about the refresh timing and skill planning.

undone lodge
#

back..

#

damn cat!

spice spire
#

Yeah next raid night let us know how it goes with higher uptime on bleeds!

whole mason
#

Every time you shouting crap I'm in shiv and I need to refresh rupture makes you stronger.

final star

^^

final star
heavy basalt
#

What benefit does pooling energy give?

final star
#

more damage in your shiv window

#

It's also a slight damage gain overall clipping the envenom buff

heavy basalt
#

<---- 100% retail noob

final star
#

- Pool on envenom (as in get about 30 from your maximum energy before casting envenom), when you are not inside of a burst window (vendetta, shiv, flag). This maximizes uptimes for poisons and buffs, but is generally not a big increase.

#

in the pin

whole mason
#

Pooling is the core sin habit for not using your energy so fast that you are energy exhaust and lose DPS in some window e.g. the env buff.

#

Just not quite significant for the current patch, but small things count.

final star
#

yeah

#

it

#

is just good practice

#

you won't ever get caught out then

undone lodge
#

so what about Ambush? should i use it everytime it's up, or waiting for free ambush to cast it?

final star
#

only cast when it's free

Look at this reply to see a perfectly executed vulnerability window. @oak trout

ruby birch

i dont idk why i typed shiv then vend

limber lion

This is the correct way

ruby birch

i usually vendetta as he's running then shiv right before he hits

Shiv is the first cd when he hits the pillar.

Vend/Flag used before.

i enjoyed sub when i was playing it

whole mason
#

is it possible for vent to control two loyal in HoA?

ruby birch
#

yes

#

pull both and click the button quickly

#

you have to cast the second "control" ability right after the first one

#

if you click it too late you wont be able to

whole mason
#

oh

#

thanks

#

do you need to target the second one?

ruby birch

no

you dont need to target any of them im pretty sure

just have both of them near you

Will my (worse) sin gear still do better on sludge?

#

It's slightly worse, but im thinking the burst + execute might make up for it?

limber lion
#

You forgot to sim a covenant with your sin set.

flat musk
#

did for me

limber lion
#

But yes, your assassination will do much better. You should be playing EP/Vig with it though

#

I'll sim it for you

rocky rain
#

oh weird. I'm necrolord so not sure why it didnt pick it up automatically

limber lion
#

Here you go

#

That's what you should run on Sludge.

#

Beats your Outlaw pretty clearly and even if it was similar it would beat it by class design.

rocky rain
#

ty. good spot

spice spire
#

Huge poggers

frail fossil
#

if u really wanna minmax sludge venthyr is pretty good for it since flag does a lot of dmg on vulnerability phases

#

but also SBS is much better on the 2 bosses after sludge

rocky rain
#

Yeah I'm literally only sin for this fight so I'm going to stick with necrolord

rocky rain
#

Do you pool SBS charges for pillars?

limber lion
#

SBS actually does more damage on average.

limber lion
frail fossil
rocky rain
#

Apart from the first one of course

limber lion
frail fossil
#

on sludge ?

limber lion
#

Go look at any sludge log

#

Yeh

frail fossil
#

damn

#

so u just hold 2 charges for pillars

limber lion
#

But it doesn't take into account the haste from Flag of course.

#

It's just the damage

#

Yep

frail fossil
#

kk

final sky
#

whats sbs

limber lion
#

Serrated Bonespike, Necrolord's covenant ability.

oh ok

also what legendary should i go? im mainly gonna do m+ until im more geared but i want to raid when im further into endgame

limber lion

It's the best overall legendary.

awesome thanks 😄

But Zoldyck’s also good in raid

you too

I like how CT is making an apperance this tier

limber lion
#

Still our best AoE ability.

rocky rain
#

Vanish pull, 2nd and 4th?

limber lion
#

On Sludge? Yes.

spice spire
#

Pillars on sludge?

rocky rain
#

Looks really tight to fit it in

#

Yeah

#

sludge

spice spire
#

Yes

limber lion
#

You use all cooldowns on pull and pillars.

#

Not just Vanish.

rocky rain
#

Yeah so vendetta on pull, 2nd and 4th. And shiv every pillar and once in between pillars?

#

Did I miss anything?

limber lion
#

You hold your covenant abilities for pillars as well. You also want to run on-use trinkets and use those on pillars as well.

#

DFV/Memory is the most common combo.

spice spire
#

Wait, I actually had a not troll question. Do we flag on vanish for the crit or does that not apply/is too minimal of a gain to be arsed?

rocky rain
#

"on use trinketS"? As in two?

#

Don't they share CD?

limber lion
limber lion
#

By using 2 you can have one trinket for each pillar.

rocky rain
#

Ah ok I get you

spice spire
#

I figured crit might be GIGA for it, that’s why I was curious.

limber lion
#

Memory on pull, DFV on p1, Memory on p2, DFV on p3 and Memory on p4

limber lion
smoky widget
#

If p1 and p2 are not an issue for denathrius is zoldjck going to outdo doomblade?

rocky rain
#

I have DFV and codex.... Codex seems not worth?

mythic as well

limber lion

Yeh, don't use that.

Flag before pillar? Actual gaming. I also meant in general not just sludge lmao it was a side question

limber lion
limber lion

Ooh so I should use skulkers DFV instead of chain DFV on sludge

limber lion
spice spire
limber lion
#

Some people have had tragedies with skulkers by having them pull them too far and kill their partner

#

But with the recent nerfs to Sludge it shouldn't be a problem

next solar
pale fossil
#

What does CT uptime normally look like on Denath through the end of P2? Really struggling to keep it up with prioritizing getting rupture onto adds and then bursting with Shiv.

rocky rain
#

ok. need some dummy time before tonight. thanks folks 😄

hollow river
limber lion
#

It changes from pull to pull for everyone.

#

Don't look at it.

hollow river
#

I was chained to a DH who went the opposite direction as my skulkers hit. ):

next solar
#

^, then again i scuffed the shit out of our first sire pull :/

pale fossil
#

I figure it'll trend up as I get more comfortable with the fight anyway, I was just curious how much to prioritize, but it sounds like the answer is don't haha

rocky rain
#

I take it if you get "unlucky" and proc 5 CPs at the start of a pillar, you just shiv anyway and overcap?

limber lion
#

Some people prioritize the priority damage from using Envenoms during Shiv windows

hollow river
#

Yeah shiv over cap is fine I think

limber lion
#

But for more overall you just slam Shiv and rupture/CT everything.

hollow river
#

It’s the only thing that is ok to overcap

pale fossil
#

Yesterday was my first time using it, so I don't have a sense for how to use it overall. I'm told I just try to keep it up, but don't refresh it during Shiv windows.

limber lion
#

You pool energy and build to 4-5 CP before the pillar.

limber lion
#

That rule only applies in single target.

hollow river
pale fossil
#

Didn't realize, that's really good to know. So on M Sire I really shouldn't pay attention to whether I have Shiv up or not when it's entering pandemic.

hollow river
#

Still managed 6.3k overall with 214 ilvl on my first@mythic huntsman kill

pale fossil

Since there's also remornia or some other add around.

@hollow river thats not bad esp for that ilvl

pale fossil
#

Got it.

hollow river
next solar
#

CT on huntsman is also giga

hollow river
#

Yes it is

next solar
#

also heroing on pull

hollow river
#

But when they take the dog away I cringe

next solar
#

just dot it and let it run

hollow river
#

I do

next solar
#

it should be back eventually

hollow river
#

Sometime I chase it down to@make sure I’ve got it completely dotted

#

Then shadow step huntsman

next solar
#

eh

#

I pretty much just plant on that fight, dog comes in for a few seconds, i get everything up, then go back to hunts

limber lion
#

You should definitely keep all bleeds on both of them at all times as much as you can.

#

Once the bleeds drop on the dog, you should run there to dot it up again.

hollow river
#

I typically don’t get time to put up every dot before they move it

limber lion
#

Or just shadowstep to the dog and walk back with it

#

Eventually the tank brings it back

#

I normally just sprint to the dog, bleed it up and step back to Huntsman

hollow river
#

So I chase for at least CT or something

kindred kettle
#

what does the optimal use of serrated bone spike look like on single target/multi?

hollow river
#

Yup

limber lion
#

AOE: you use SBS on everything around you so everything has the dot on them. Then you use them during Gemstone procs again.

next solar
#

our kill the dog isn't out long enough for bleeds to expire

limber lion
#

Prioritize targets that die quickly, as you get resets from them

hollow river
next solar
#

no i mean i think you can time it to where it comes back in

hollow river
#

Ohhh yeah ofc

next solar
#

wasn't meaning to brag, i just think it works oujt that way

hollow river
#

I thought you meant you guys killed it that fast rofl

next solar
#

nooooo

#

xD

limber lion
#

Yeah a lot of guilds just take the dog out for an eternity and bring it back only after shades spawn.

next solar
#

our dog is out for a total of 17 seconds

limber lion
#

Some guilds just move it like 3s before Rip Soul happens and then brings it straight back

next solar
#

which is right when garrote needs to be refreshed

hollow river
#

I’ve only done mythic once but out tanks seemed like they were on it with timing

#

We had no immunes left for the last set

#

Does cloak work on them?

limber lion
#

Nope.

#

Nothing does.

hollow river
#

Wow

limber lion
#

In our kit that is.

dapper yew
#

Does Crimson Tempest Bleed count as bleed damage and do you get energy regen per Venomous Wounds

limber lion
#

BOP does work.

hollow river
#

I popped everything

next solar
#

turtle works

hollow river
#

And I barely got off a second of flesh craft

limber lion
#

VW specifies which bleeds work.

pale fossil
#

So BoP + Cloak will fully immune it.

hollow river
#

How often should I fok for poisons

next solar
#

you just can't soak with cloak

hollow river
#

Okay

limber lion
#

You don't need to specifically FoK to keep them up

#

You can just tab target and melee or Mutilate

hollow river
#

Right

spice spire
# limber lion Nothing does.

Cloak removed the dot. But nothing works for the initial damage. Except cheat death BABY. Survived a sac arrow allay night as well

limber lion
#

On Huntsman you never FoK for example.

pale fossil
#

Anecdotally, as long as you're close to full, you can Cheat Death on the Sinseeker and Cloak to avoid the DoT finishing you off, but that's risky and shouldn't be planned around.

limber lion
#

Or well, pop Cheat Death

hollow dirge
#

Would be a cool legendary - each bleed you apply counts towards venomous wounds

pale fossil
#

Yeah, I lived a P3 Sinseeker with Cheat Death last time I ran it, but that only worked as far as I know because I was almost full HP.

spice spire
#

P2 I was a soaker and just before sun seeker went off, our pally went down so I had no BoP. I’ve no idea how I didn’t die to the seeker there

next solar
#

I think over the course of the entire fight i had 5 FoK

limber lion
#

On my 10k pull I literally used FoK 0 times.

#

it's not needed whatsoever.

burnt star
#

even with 2 shade + boss + bear?

hollow river
#

Last night during raid my toon kept untargetting the bosses randomly.

next solar
#

i mean I wasn't saying it was needed, just that i did it

Like even on ST so I know I wasn’t hitting tab

rockets that dps LMAO

limber lion
next solar
#

i went from 9.2 to like 9.6ish

limber lion
#

I always used my cooldowns with Marghore because I wanted to have double the bleeds for maximum energy regen during Vendetta window

#

But the damage amp is dumb

next solar
#

yeah

pale fossil
#

Oooh that reminds me. For purposes of IQD calculating your two highest stats, does it take into account things like Vantus and raid buffs? Or is it purely equipment substats?

limber lion
#

You definitely need to hold for it if you're looking to parse :p

next solar
#

parsing on that fight is pseudo cheesed

limber lion
limber lion

The more people die, the better parse you get :D

I used IQD on Outlaw so it's fun to have it actually be good haha

wait what

pale fossil

People say IQD isn't very good for Outlaw.

#

I used it in M+ anyway because I liked the utility.

cosmic haven
#

hey

#

what soulbind should i take for m+ ?

spice spire
#

What covenant are you?

cosmic haven
#

im reading, but cant find a definitive answer

#

as im venthyr

spice spire
#

I personally prefer nadjia double potency

cosmic haven
#

I was looking at draven

#

so thats out of the picture then?

#

and what is your 2nd potency conduit youre running then?

spice spire
#

Lashing scars and Poison Katar if you’re doing thicc pulls or lethal poisons as a generically good conduit

gusty mirage
spice spire
#

Draven is perma not an option on 9.0

gusty mirage
#

All of his abilities seem healer oriented

limber lion
#

It sims pretty much identically to Nadja double-pot, without taking into account the Vers you give to your team.

cosmic haven
#

is the 3% not neglible?

spice spire
#

Also good. Arguably better

#

For daunted duelist?

limber lion
#

DD is pretty bad for M+.

spice spire
#

That’s st and doesn’t apply to everyone it’s really bad for M+

cosmic haven
#

no i mean, the tea time 3%

spice spire
#

Ahhh

cosmic haven
#

i both got katar and lethal at 200 ilvl

limber lion
#

3% times 5 is 15%

#

Also our potencies are dog shit.

#

Like

#

Really bad

#

If Wasteland does the same damage as Nadja with double pot, why wouldn't you use Wasteland then?

#

It's the same damage + you get free vers for everyone

cosmic haven
#

true

gusty mirage
#

Wdym you don’t like 25 dps conduits?

cosmic haven
#

ill sim it

limber lion
#

Thrill Seeker procs at random points where you might not get any value out of it

#

Umbrella might be pretty scuffed as well

cosmic haven
#

can i sim dungeon slice

#

or doesnt that work for ass rogue

#

i know it doesnt work for boomies so

gusty mirage
#

Blizzard’s fascination with ground effect buffs is interesting seeing as everything requires movement these days

limber lion
#

Yes you should for us

polar cape
#

I still didn’t get around socketing draven kekw

limber lion
#

Dungeon Slice is really good for Rogues.

#

Our apl is tailored so it works well in DSlice as well.

#

It includes restealths and time to die variables.

cosmic haven
#

btw, why isnt hidden blades being reworked?

spice spire
#

Umbrella is hella scuffed is only reason I go double pot

cosmic haven
#

its absoulutely dogshit

limber lion
#

So is Exsang

#

And Venom Rush

polar cape
#

Or venom rusg

gusty mirage
#

Because blizzard doesn’t like us

polar cape
#

Rush*

spice spire
#

Btw. Doesn’t mean I’m right here. Yeah our talents are actually hella scuffed in general

cosmic haven
#

well venom rush used to be great last xpansion at certain points

timber basalt
#

do 213 potency conduits actually drop anywhere

spice spire
#

No idea why conduits wouldn’t be the same kekw

limber lion
gusty mirage
limber lion
#

It just didn't have better alternatives.

cosmic haven
#

thats what i meant :p

limber lion
#

With Alacrity you never take either ever.

cosmic haven
#

alactratirytrytri is just too good to pass on

polar cape
#

Alacrity actually the cursed talenr

limber lion
#

It's super boring

#

And super good.

gusty mirage
#

Legion venom rush was purty good iirc

limber lion
#

Yeh, that's the last time we used it.

gusty mirage
#

The bfa and sl iteration has been absolute trash

polar cape
#

It was extra energy on ticks tough or something in legion

limber lion
#

No

gusty mirage
#

Every 4 mutilates get one for free OMEGAKEKW

limber lion
#

It's the literal same talent

polar cape
#

Oh my bad

limber lion
#

Nowadays we just have Poison Bomb on the last row

#

And Venom Rush is on the second to last row instead of TB

cosmic haven
#

ugh ! that green thing

#

that used to be something right

limber lion
#

It is just an awful talent.

cosmic haven
#

the 2nd from the right

#

i forgot the name

limber lion
#

That's Toxic Blade.

cosmic haven
#

it increased poison dmg right

#

why is it gone?

limber lion
#

Yes

#

it's not

#

It's baseline

#

It's called Shiv now

#

You don't talent into it anymore

#

It's baseline

gusty mirage
#

I’m pretty sure venom rush increased the energy from venomous wounds once upon a time

cosmic haven
#

it did ^

#

i can remember that

#

probs around mythic dazalor, when i stopped

#

playing the rouge

limber lion
#

In Emerald Nightmare it still did

gusty mirage
#

But it’s okay we have powerhouse options like exsang

limber lion
#

Actually now that you mention it

#

I'm giga wrong

gusty mirage
limber lion
#

It was like that for the entirety of Legion

#

WCL just uses the current iteration of Venomous Wounds

gusty mirage
#

Our talents are so incredibly funny

cosmic haven
#

wasnt exsang good at a certain point?

#

with loads of mastery

polar cape
#

@limber lion i was right doe the legion one XD

If rupture is getting close to pandemic, do you hold shiv to refresh it first?

#

So you dont have to rupture in shiv

gusty mirage

I would yes
