unless your tank is trolling
And you can keep up snd between your CT stuff
Yeah.. as for the target swapping its a bit of overhead.. on my dh, I can just tunnel the main target and cleave everything without ever changing my target... lol
And I often troll 
yeah sin in m+ is much more difficult than ST
Oh yeah sin cleave is hella fun but definitely a bit more challenging
You get used to it
takes getting used to yeah
is CT higher prio in aoe than rupture?
yes
got it cause i think in ST its the other way around
... and when outside a shiv window, if I have 4 or 5 cp and ct is falling off, refreshing ct is higher priority than envenom? Even on a single target?
in ST i think you can just omit CT and use envenoms and barely lose like 20dps
iirc
yes its higher prio, on ST aswell
Elaborate planning or master poisoner? I've been running ep.
i'm not 100% sure i'm correct in stating you can omit CT in ST and barely lose and dps period.
but i've heard that.
yes EP
so how does the new dagger work? do we get 2x debuffs with double dagger or is it just 1 debuff?
2x iirc
doubles the proc rate
check the pins for new dagger info, it's in there
how so
" Equipping 2 daggers seems to not only double the proc rate, but also the damage"
hmm so it's not clear whether it just doubles the damage entirely, or if it doubles the damage of each proc? is what you're saying
yeah
i can see where you're coming from. for now i would assume the former i stated above.
"just doubles the damage entirely"
master poisoner is only useful in pvp
until you've heard from someone more knowledgeable
how those sims looking @gusty mirage

oof

what's that term where you're diving deep into something you're kinda a potato at? Being in over your head?
Yeah that's me rn
you had me at potato
hahah
anyone know if i change from fae to necro and then to venthyr can i go back to necro straight away?
not straight away no
you'd have to do the 2 reset questchain to go back
^^^
gawd damn
you must choose only one, young padded one.
might test them on ptr then
there are sims in the pins that might help you pick also
but if you want to test how the feel to play then that might be your best bet
yeh exactly thats what im thinking....wasnt liking necro before but hopefully come around to it
it feels much better since it was buffed
it effects your playstyle the most.
venth and fae you just press for buff etc
yeh i was sub rogue on launch and didnt really like fae either
he's getting there

had to call for backup
little guidance
Truly based sims just in time for the release of 9.3 
500.1
Prior to expansion launch I was deadset against playing Necro, but 9.05 helped show me the light. Now that the initial sims are showing Venth (my fav cov) as best for dual specing Sub and Sin, I'm having a tough time convincing myself I don't want to be a Stinky boi
SBS just fits so well
never gonna happen 
Hate the mog, mate that maldraxxis is a living, breathing diabetic ulcer, but love the class ability and soulbinds haha. So torn.
it's a tough decision but the ability to viably spec sub when you want sounds nice
I like necro because sbs are always available and you can spam and spread them across mobs and get them back when they die. Deliberating on when to use flagellation, with its 90 cd, means i either don't use it enough or don't have it when i need it.. lol
Also, a warr thought he was going to gank me in wpvp, but as I rotted him down he tried to leap away and I blasted him in the back with a couple sbs and nuked him... hunter rogue ftw
NF set: 
Nf mount: 
I actually almost started fae just for the mount but i qent venthyr instead and ended up ready for 9.0.5 
What is the NF mount? Some gorm or butterfly?
Its like a sheep thing
Super cool honestly
The butterflies are drops and things i have a couple of them, those are cool too
Have you guys seen the new six months sub mount 9.1?
It’s like a two headed dragon looking thing
Is it like a flayedwing
uwotm8
you ever seen one of them flayedwing
Whispyr needs some sleep
True!
Whispyr doesn’t sleep tf
Get out
Imagine you could have necro ability venthyr mog nf mount qnd kyrian was deleted 🙂
All the covenants in harmony
Except kyrian ig but who wants wow lightmodr anyway
Well the story line for 9.1 is that the covenants are starting to work together again, was hoping it would mean we'll start to get some form of cross covenant stuff, but that doesn't sound like something they will actually give us.
In 9.3 when it doesn't matter anymore you'll get weird shit like that
When do we get flying?
IIRC it’s tied to the campaign quest
.. and as for the mounts, the Vicious Warr Spider is the coolest
Like week 2 or 3
We get flying in 2 or 3 weeks? 9.1?
Isn't it at renown 44? Or am I confusing that with something else that unlocks then.
renown 45 I believe
Sweet.. thx
Yup... renown 44 and chapter 12 of the covenant Campain... unlocks account wide
https://www.icy-veins.com/wow/how-to-unlock-flying-in-shadowlands-patch-9-1
How fast is getting renown up after changing covenant
I just swapped from venthyr to necro at reset. I finished the campaign and I'm renown 34 now.
Ah ok so it ain't really gated
lfr renown farm is really quick
!covenant
in the pins
My man
Nice I'll proba switch to Necro today then
Same
Didn’t there used to be a UI thread somewhere, I’ve just resubbed and trying to make mine less shit
Please and ty
a ui is a personal kinda thing, can you define "less shit"? like, are you losing performance ie dots falling off because you aren't tracking them properly or potentially dying to mechanics if ur boss mod timers aren't in a place you can track them easily?

Read thru that
Dated but still relevant. Most of us are using the same damn UI as each other around here anymore
I use adriox UI with class wa too
love that post
I love all of you beautiful people
We love you too boss

Go to bed plz
Take care of yourself chief
chug more mountain dew and fruit punch, order another 4lbs of hi-chew and pass out till 3pm

aye aye capn

If you die and go to heck, the patch notes change daily and it never releases
Did you tell him he is not supposed to swallow them whole?
I just make my spit pretty colors with the flavors man
i love me some hi chews
I should buy stocks in hi chew during PTR cycles
I buy the 1lb packs cause it's cheaper
4# is 2799 on amazon
lmao
Lol put a gofund me up. I'll gladly donate to the "Keep Whispyr alive" fund
@thorny pond did you come over? Because my front lawn has turned into a pseudo beach
What happened 
My street is now a river 
Oh shit is it going bad on east coast or something
I’m in the Midwest and we’ve been getting slammed with rain all day
Damn
Have you been to the great state of Ohio? Its always atrocity weather
I dont even know what weather is
They’re south of us and we don’t like them
I’m just here for the free meth shows
Pretty sure no one likes Ohio.
I get like 3 hot seasons and 1 brisk and a little rain season
That and I can vacation to my favorite place
anyone knows if hemotoxin heal reduce stacks with wound poison?
i did
nah they vanished from sight 
Has there been changes since the last Sims? Or those are the ones going into 9.1?
It’s kinda slow right now for them. I believe it does but don’t quote me on that
Sims from yesterday are basically it man. Whispyr just said there are more done but in relation to what you’d have to ask
Nothing radical is going to throw the shift off too much and we all kinda see how it’ll lay out
Ah yeh sweet ty man
I wonder if we'll get any pi next tier
Since it seems we get more from it than dks
hello , gonna play necro at 9.1 , does anyone have a good wa for gemmstone proc?
ty
do i need to do anything special before using shiv in multi-target? In single target i pool energy and cp before using it is that worth in multi-target?
or do i just slam it and forget about it?
!shiv
O
Pretty sure you just slam it
In any target amount
Pooling -30 from max energy for envenoms outside of shiv
yep
just slam
someone pointed out that in dungeonslice, the sim ended a pack by casting shiv on the very last GCD
so I tried to improve that
and it wasn't a gain
it's too powerful
just slam and go
Soryy if already too much asked, but where can i find the most up to dates sim ? are they the on in pins ?
Don't think there are properly updated simms
Because there's a lot of last minute balancing going on
So it's changing daily
Really ? even this weekend ptr is changing ?
and next week too
Like
blizz is doing the college way of last day changes
Domination gems got rebalanced recently
i expected next week for the mythic raid, but i gathered that this was it for 9.1 launch right now
Ok , thanks for the reply guys, guess i'll wait
Just to be sure , as i am necrolord right now ( i think it was still good for assa/outlaw) , are you guys preparing kyrian just in case ?
If you only care about assassin the sims are accurate i would say
Necro is a safe bet
kyrian wont be good for assassin regardless of what happens
Kyrian is if you wanna go outlaw/sub
But that might be a gamble because mikanikos seems a bit over the dps budget vs other soulbinds
I mean , sub is interesting but even with sim advantage i don't see it staying the relevent spec over assa as it lose a lot of dps for any reason( melee uptime, kyrian maybe nerf etc..)
but meh i could be wrong
Sin is safer but imo there don't seem to be any crazy punishing mechanics in most of the fights so the sub hype is for sure real
I wouldn't say its overrated when sub and sin are so close in single target to begin with
well depending on what happens to mikanikos xD
It's healthy that sub would have higher ST potential than sin anyways so i'm good with it
Don't think mika is the contender here
Since obedience is what sub really likes
Well obediance sub is only 100 dps ahead of sin(maybe a bit more with sylv dagger), so the downtime disadvantage might put sin ahead is what im saying basically
I agree
either way im playing sub 🙂
should be totally good enough for people not pushing prog super hard
The issue i'm having right now is whether or not to swap back to venthyr to optimize the niche of rogue ST or stay necro. Doesn't seem like there are any "cleave" fights that matter other than the nine
most people going necro?
yea
would it be stupid macroing ambush to mutilate?
yes
yes
you also cant do that so
ah damn
im staying venthyr personally
Is it ok to refresh rupture inside of shiv?
yes u press shiv on cd, so if it lands on a rupture refresh timer u just run with it, tho do try to plan ahead and to make sure to reapply rupture so u dont need to during shiv, even if u need to reapply it outside of shiv when it's not in pandemic
honestly i almost never have to refresh a rupture into a shiv window without paying much attention to it
Hey guys, just wondering if nightfae will be viable in 9.1
Dam, must be a no, my group doesn't have a nightfae so was thinking if i should go nightfae
Oh you’re serious
YEP
Nightfae is 4-8% down in basically every form
what u choosing @balmy condor
I’m playing venth sin/sub

Is the Night Fae seriously so bad?
That sounds great
Actually probably more potentially game breaking is that Pustules is pretty strong
Get pumped for the fleshcraft APL tomorrow
It’s the worst choice for all 3 specs kinda

If it out sims heirmir I’m going to break your face koji
Highly possibly it will beat Venthyr
Very respectfully break your face
Let alone Heirmir
Time to go back vampie boi cuz i just copy pasta what whisp does
Pustules simming high 
Damn... gonna change my Cov to Necro then.
Bye bye "free gold" from the conservatory. 😦
I mean atm on Mystler's bulk comparisons Emeni was 48th but only like 70 DPS behind Heirmir
Fleshcraft for damage 
When I was running this with Havoc sims Pustules was almost worth 3% lol

Vanish for damage why not
Oh then probably fine
how do u get damage from fleshcraft? just stand in shit?
It's only 1% behind Heirmir atm
Get healed or do damage
It literally just pops every 1 second ICD
because overheals work
And SnD heals work
I'd assume you wouldn't want it in raid
So you just channel Fleshcraft and get 1 proc per second for 9 seconds
Standing 3 secs channeling doesn't seem like an ideal playstyle
Unless you have intermissions like council or slg
That's like.. literally what people do to use Fleshcraft as it is? 😛
but when would i use sbs if i am going emeni
Considering Assassination has like 15% downtime
Channeling Fleshcraft for 3s every 2 minutes is not exactly a big deal
We have over 40s of downtime every 5 minutes
Just dump your energy and channel lol
Pretty sure that's gonna stomp Heirmir actually lol
That's basically enough DPS to bring it up to Nadjia/Venthyr level 😛
God I hate that
Take that Venthyr scum
Y'all make me more lost on what covenant to go everytime I check this disc
I mean I think it's been the same for a while. Necro or Venthyr are probably best depending on what you are up to.
Depends, if Kyrian will be #1 for Outlaw and he‘ll play both, maybe someone can also take Kyr in consideration. Or am I wrong?
If your goal is to play Assassination+Outlaw, Necrolord is probably the choice
doomblade
Kyrian is not good for Assassination
Yes
and have enough to craft obedience week 4
Well technically you don't need to recraft until you are ready to craft your rank 6
Not like we're gonna have a hands gem slot on day one
Sorry I’ve been gone a while these have probably been answered a lot
actually @balmy condor
Initially it really doesn't matter
can you help me with a quickie
I have r4 gloves atm so yeah I’ll wait
You can always have a quickie
You just want to make sure your R5/R6 craft is in the right slot
what sub with obedience vs sin with atm gear, no daggers
No real rush to do it on day one or anything
Yeah fair
you can do soulbinds for whatever you'll have unlocked by week 4
Uh idk let me dig through some DM’s
New Venthyr legendary
Oui
Oh lmao they nerfed the shit out of tazavesh neck
Is venthyr/obedience leggo going to be the best combo for raiding in 9.1?
Or should I just stay with Necro/doomblade on cloak because it wouldn't matter.
I highly doubt, but who knows
probably ye
Cheers, ty.
Necro is a whole lot better for outlaw and m+ and venthyr is a whole lot better for sun and pure ST
So you can hedge your bets and go necro or play to a strength and go venthyr
I wouldn’t say it’s a whole lot better in ST
Necro will be closer in ST than it was this tier
I think the only reason to go Venthyr is if you plan to play Sub as well
Plague deviser marileth stonks? 
Yo guys, you think we should be the best melee raid spec? or are fury/havoc above us?
in 9.1
Rogue will be one of the top
Well Ryler I just mostly think if Necro is within 1% on ST it’s just probably better. It’s so much stronger with any adds.
Rogue will most likely do more dps but dh and warrior are required for raid buff
I think also if you plan on doing m+
Ass will be good in m+ I think but outlaw will always be better and venthyr isn’t the best for outlaw but necro outlaw m+ rocks
I think
How many pure single target fights are in that raid anyway
All of them
You don't win until the boss hits 0
Also depends if you wanna pvp
Bro
Memes aside though the add fights don't seem to be that big a deal
What misinformation are you talking about ?? 
Mate, when somone here says 100% serious and as a fact "venthyr isna whole lot better for st, you can hedge your bets and go necro, or play your strenghts and Go venthyr"
Just, what?
People gonna read that and belive it, when its simply not true at all
Venthyr is only 80 dps ahead sim wise of necro assa ST
I don't know where you get your information from
Like I’m sorry for quoting the sims
I mean it happens when we have lots of people coming back to the class/spec or looking to reroll. People are just excited in general. At the end of the day things are just getting started and will probs change with more tuning in the next week
th gap will also reduce when new spell data for SBS is implemented (which allows it to crit) and maybe changes to soulbinds can have some impact too
I think that's already implemented
I believe this is already including that change but not 100%
Nvm
Currently only the daggers/fist weps/ some of the new trinkets haven't been implemented
and the soulbind changes they made on thursday I believe?
In the current sims?
In the pinned ones
Yike
Truly doing the lord's work
poor raidbot is 
You should probably just stop there and wait for everything to be in tho
Are the daggers still fucky wucky bugged? @balmy condor
like daggers and shit
All I was trying to say was that necro seems more versatile across the board for different content, pve and pvp, it’s only not that great for sub
Sozlol
Sadge
I mean you can't go wrong with any cov right now save night fae
Yeh maybe but then I have nothing to do
It’s so awks because I’ve been away for so long I’m still NF haha
You know you could actually play the game too 
noob question, what is the lashing conduit ?

What game
Venth conduit

The Sim game
World of simcraft
ah thanks
Better start that renown journey fren lol
simming while locked inside Kojis basement the game
True
@balmy condor do you think the flagellation fix will put obedience as best leg?
Simming is how whisp plays wow so
Aren't you supposed to sleep @balmy condor ?
Wait is whispyr streaming again while he should sleep?
So you can stream your sims before I go to bed tonight ?
Yeah I’ve got most of this week off work to catch up, go team
I just got home from work like an hour ago
It’ll be really strong
oh ok
Pro tip get a group of renown farmers and queue plaguefall, skip first two bosses and only do last 2. 15 min guaranteed renown up to 30 then do campaign
The 12s obedience thing applied to all sims right ? so It'd mean it'd become stronger for sub too ?
So I’m like 2k anima off of getting the achv for all level 2s so I get more anima so I was gonna crush that out then farm
But My actual goal is KSM in 3 days
You do you
the two options we got are Ven - Sin/sub or Necro Sin/outlaw < this is still valid.
Yes
Subtlety 

Did something change ?
Could make venthyr a bit op
Well that'd probably make venthyr catch up to kyrian ST for sub ?
Koji told me sims are doing 24 second vers a month ago
And I’ve been telling people it’s 24 second vers
And it’s been 12
Welp
Misinfo
oof

Reported for sure
For playing with my heart
So venthyr shiild be weaker than it is currently in sims? 
guys what would be the best bid? going with which 😄
atleast dk and rae will be happy
I just woke up i’m fried
So how many necro copiums gonna stick to it?
Obedience specifically
Or we seeing more red after this?
I'm staying Necro until otherwise forced out
Yeah. I see. Thanks Whispyr ❤️
I'm waiting for the fleshcraft tweaks
Pustululs from fleshcraft are pumping
Says koji
so is venth looking a biut better this week in sims?
i am lost 😄
Why would it better am I dumb???
it totally depends on what you prefer to play honestly
if you prefer to play assa and outlaw
then necro is a good pick
But venthyr means all in on thrill seeker
if you want to play sub/assa then go venthyr
Soo..
i am all about raiding
Heretics I say
so what would be better for progress
Venthyr most likely
Tbd
we should go back to if you have to ask it doesnt matter for you its way more edgy
May i ask why? or is it too long answer 😄
Raid is pretty much all ST outside of KT so pushing your ST in sin would be the easiest answer for prog
i c
that and it allows you to play both the 2 strongest ST rogue specs
Wait sin doesn’t even care about obedience…
Need to resim for bugs and marileth
Sims are still shaky. Please don’t freak out. You can still play venth/necro and be perfectly fine. If you haven’t chosen yet, that’s fine, if you’ve chosen already, that’s fine too. Your choice is valid and you are beautiful.
TLDR: YOUR COVENANT IS FINE. YOURE FINE. ITS GOING TO BE OKAY. PICK ONE
what are we talking about % wise between ven and necro ST
Depends right now. Not a clear answer yet
Why better :(((
For pure boss damage venthyr for sure
Wholesome whispyr
it seems 1% right?
currently yes
but sylv daggers haven't been implemented yet
nor the obedience fix
Thanks
although marileth does seem lit kevin seems interesting
What was the fix?
i will be fked if ven became way stronger 😄 i just lvled my rouge few days ago and it was ven at the beginning and for some reason i switched to necro before i reach 40. 😄
also pvp buff now that it always gives mastery
an extra 12 sec of vers
It was only simming 12 sec of vers instead of 24
whats aoe rotation look like for assassination necro?
how does emeni pustules work in sims, just hardcasting fleshcraft on cooldown?
If we wanna stay flexible everything would work okayish if we just "avoid" mastery and aim for crit>haste=vers yeah?
Garrotes up, snd up, ct up, sbs up, ruptures up
Apl hasn’t been pushed yet
and even then
Thinking across all three specs sorry
Gar gar gar gar ct sbs sbs rup sbs rup is a good opener if you have snd up already.
damn just realised i didnt have crimson tempest at all...is that really good now?
You take it on anything with more than raw single target
oh damn i havent played sin for ages didnt know
yeah i know its early stages i was just curious about general use
its interesting with fleshcraft as a dps cooldown
For now. 
well thanks god you didnt live the dream of ct st
On cooldown is usually a good rule
you also have to be on melee on what you want to hit
dont use it prepull or you int popping them before
as they get popped by snd and any heal
how does it make it better ?
i'm confuzzle
maybe me stupid
Yes
The haste currently lasts for 24s
But the new vers from Obi only lasts for 12s
Fixerino makes it 24s
Very pog.
do we open with ambush always?
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.
o shit...im guessing use garrote then?
Mutilate with master assassin, garrote with subterfuge
awesome thanks
Or sbs with ma if necro
Would recommend reading a guide and not guessing.
!guide
lol yeh fair enough
so...you mean...... 36seconds would be even gooder?
venthyr 📈
the owl frenzy is hillarious ngl
people overreacting to covenant changes
right now
in a state of the game where stuff changes
well the Bron buffs are very sus
instead of chilling and waiting for mythic release patch, to see what will probably stay good
i mean, i have a high feeling its gonna get the pelagos treatment
doesnt dh just get x4 bron uptime or something now
yea i mean when you also see bron bring 10% of damage on heals
remember how hyped pelagos was? and then turned way worse cus they adjusted it?
you know its getting the slam jam
guys in sin-necro we are always going with Heirmir right?
Depend on the covenant change , Emeni has not been simed for now
but you will need the capstone
so until renown liek 59 forget about the snake princess
yea heirmir better now
and first week is same as they all get potency
onwards it depends
how much lower is assassination aoe to outlaw?
It’s still competes it’s just not brain dead like OL
There’s nice pins to give you a relative answer
any idea what to craft doomblade on for 9.1?
Cape
Cant make it until 9.1
cape is a 9.1 slot
oh right guess ill wait
Sin feels worse the lower the key too, Outlaw can basically delete a pack before you have subterfuged in 15s
Outaw is a lot more relaxed to play in keys in general. DoT management is a lot of work to play optimally.
That outlaw must be pumping to do that in seconds
Which won’t be the case 90% of the time even if it happens.
Sin feels fine in mythic +
Lets not lie to people
We have plenty of peeps here who play it at 20+
is doom blade better than obedience?
No I'm saying it's better in 20s than say Tyran 15s where it just feels shit to have the pack die before you gar half the time
Nothing is dieing In that span of seconds
More simming is required. For sin ST, doomblade will probably be better still. But perhaps you could use obedience as venthyr in other situations. Also, obedience should be sub's best leggo for venthyr in any situation.
I did see obedience doing well in dungeon slice
Nadja triple potency + obedience
But that’s with no sylvanas daggers
good thing they are both cloak
Yeah if that’s what we end up using it’ll be nice to not worry about two slots
:')
He caught an unfortunate stomach illness.
Spooned
We still going necrolord, or are we having another existential crisis about covenants today too
Hasty is my middle name
its still early in the day plenty of time for a breakdown later
Necro is so much more engaging to play
TLDR: YOUR COVENANT IS FINE. YOURE FINE. ITS GOING TO BE OKAY. PICK ONE
IM NOT FINE
For single target.
But we're getting new sims, new implementations, bug fixes etc. daily
So a lot of things constantly change.
!guide
zoldycks goes on legs now right?
Still, yes.
sin is still using doomblade atm right?
depends on the content
sadly my doomblade is on hands :/
It is for all of us.
Cloak is a new slot coming in 9.1
Thanks Blizzard 
For raids, yeah, looks like it. But you should wait before crafting anything new tbh
It takes 2 resets, so if you do the first part today and the next part the day of reset, then you gucci
Next week will be kinda slow anyways because we don't have Tazavesh or the raid available
fuck it, staying necro
So a good time to farm the last bits of renown and whatnot
Probably same :)
I love bone spike to much
RL: James stope playing tbc and being lazy not prepping for 9.1
Me: nah it’s all good rogue discord said to chill
There's honestly not much you can do to prep
hey guys sorry for basic question im swapping to my rogue for 9.1 and i wanna play all 3 specs but main assassination with raid as my focus, is necro the best option for me?
yes
Probably yes
I was faster than cev Pog
Venthyr is a great choice as well
I just wonder if you can regrind the new renown the week you swapped, if you decide to swap after first week of 9.1
pAnIk
Depends what 2 specs you are leaning towards
check thepins for the answer to that @indigo thicket
I'd go venthyr because it unlocks sub
And venthyr outlaw is not too bad
Probably, because we get more catchup in 9.1
thanks guys for quick answers
ye I mean solely focused on the new renown 41+
considering you were a week behind sometimes when it bugged early in sl
and you get red glowing swords
if you decided to swap
/
Who knows.
@limber lion hi you’re cute
on the other hand I've only kyrian left on like 28-ish. not planning on swapping to kyrian anyways, considering it shouldnt end up overwhelmingly good
hi handsome
uh oh, Toxi entered the facility
i thought Taz was out day one blah
They want to make sure we don’t have too much to do
Unfort not :'(
So 3 renown levels and some more campaign quests is all we’re getting 
Bless 
isn't it exciting! 😄
guess no reason to take that day off )
Korthia tho
Lit zone

You’re lit 
Sudden pfp change 
I’m reformed 
Until 9.1 hits that is
The sims saved my basement from flooding, I’m a changed man
Public face reveal 
am i missing something or is necrolord extremely boring on ST?
You press sbs the most so probably not necro's fault
on ST its basically just a mutilate replacement every x seconds right?
Exactly, the other ones are press and forget until cd. Except maybe Kyrian but it's too gimmicky
you use it to prevent capping, so if you are close to 3 charges, and if gemstone procs you dumb your charges
else you wanna hold if adds spawn
I mean, you still press it more than Flag/Sepsis/ER
You just use Flag on cooldown before a finisher
wee exciting
You press Sepsis on cooldown, followed by Shiv
wee exciting
We're not exactly blessed with the most engaging covenant abilities.
Flag hits like a truck tho it feels good when you hit it
But SBS is definitely up there in terms of engagement.
It shines especially in aoe
Can confirm that echoing reprimand feels like shit to press
Especially when you get the wonderful 2nd anima charged CP so you’re sitting there angry at rng
what slot will zoldyck be crafted in 9.1?
I was kyr sub at the start, the random proc was fuck8ng me up all the time
Still legs.
“Nice I just shadowstrike to 4cp and finish and get my 7cp finisher”
Shadowtech has entered the building
anyone got any decent macros they are using? feel like I have a 1000 keybindfs
For assa?
I don't use any macros.
We don't really have that many buttons to be honest.
At least buttons that would see a lot of play.
Only thing I have macro’d is tricks to focus and mouseover, not much I can help you with there
might do a mouseover one for SBS
Yeah mouseover for SBS is nice and especially useful for outlaw
Doesn't relieve you from a lot of buttons
true that
I have a mouseover garrote and rupture but thats mainly due to play outlaw prior
can you have a macro which do mouseover, if not current target?
yes /cast [@mouseover][] spell
It defaults to current target if you’re not mousing anything over
awesome, cheers all
does the bleed from bonespike proc venomous wounds?
!guide
the tooltip even says only rupture or garrote
The SBS bleed does factor in to doomblade though
And zold right ?
yes
Wasn’t sure thanks
No one factoring the squishy wet splash sound the boners make in their necro choice or is that just me?
Thinking of grinding out Venthyr this week, currently NF but feel like vamps would be better. 
i just swapped to necro and wondering if i made a mistake and should do venthyr
I barely hear the gamesounds. just set up stuff in a way that I hear dbm and nothing else as I mostly listen to music 😄
Necro is ~50 DPS lower in pure ST and ~400 DPS higher in m+
@jagged yoke saw that Necro was good too, but I prefer Venthyr
currently farming renown for necro
I also dabble in Sub and dislike Out, so that helps the decision.
yeh is necro alot better for aoe?
yes
It's a good bit better for m+ if you're running Sin
Venth or Necro are your ideal things on what you want to be. Venth I think is better for Sin/Sub, Necro is better for Sin/Outlaw.
I know there's better info in the pins
have they nerfed the necro legendary for outlaw? i remember that ryfie said that he would prob reroll outlaw if that legendary stayed like that
Yes they did.
Yeah I was looking at the pins
It's quite bad now.
They did. It only hits 1 atdditional target
it has been deleted from the game
good, at least people won't ask me to reroll
effectively
They nerfed the Necro leggo, Sylv daggers, hardmode necklace
Took all of our fun away
Nerfed Syl daggers how?
Nerfed as in brought them back down to reality
They’re still gonna be bis though aren’t they? Extra Damage is a bonus
Yeah, pretty sure they are still BiS according to Whispyr's latest sims
Probably yes
I’ll take what I’m given
I'm the only Rogue in the raid team and I deserve recompense for my horrible luck with the Carapace dagger last exapc
we just have no clue if they will do 3% of our dmg or 15%
Vers master and low weapon damage and their proc heals the target kek
I feel sorry for people wanting to use Jaithys.
Plus they're maces. 
They're a reskin of the frying pan model
i messed up, i should have waited until the patch dropped, crafted doomblade on the back and put the ventyr transmog on it, then swapped to necro 😦
Doomblade can't go on back yet
I see nothing wrong with this at all, 9.1 is an overwhelming success in my book now
How did you craft doomblade on cloak xd
after the patch
He’s saying he should have waited to swap
^
Oh he sounded like he just did it
Oxford commas and whatnot
No
cause i have no idea on how the new sockets work
if it's legs
yeah its on legs
Mostly focused on Doomblade recrafted to cloak, that's the important one.
recraft on cloak in 9.1
thanks boss
so wait, with new obedience sims, its gonna be better than doom?
what's the obedience optimization whyspir wants to make ?
the sims missing out on casts because of the cdr
Flag is not giving 24s verse
I think it means it looks better in sims than in the actual situation?
I think
Flag is only giving 12s of verse, should be giving 24s.
im gonna do the quest to swap back to venth, just to be safe
or that may have been for sub
that was fixed iirc
You'd think that
But apparently it was never implemented
And Whispyr was saying that
for weeks
even though it was never fixed.

But that means we'll have to update the sims again
And means that Sub will see a pretty giga gain in obedience dps
Wouldn't be surprised if it pulls ahead Kyrian now tbh
but who knows, we'll just have to wait and see.
DK rly happy rn
So Obedience is the best leggo for Sub?
Or at least tracking to be?
Poggers
Man, I have an image of Arthas making the pogger face, but I'm on my phone. ;_;
is it this one?
Is the raid dagger effect disabled on ptr atm? I did 2 runs of torghast and got 0 procs. The debuff was stacking, but it never did any damage.
Bets me. Could just be that they are actively working on it.
very possible
@gusty mirage i think mine has his lips more pronounced, I have to remember it when I get home
maybe they are balancing the dagger by giving it a 0.00001% proc rate
so obedience over doomblade now or wot?

Any and all updated information will be pinned
does it still give vers like at the same time u get the haste from flag
ie after u cant get more stacks
The sims were done with 12s vers
but it should be 24s
that's why it's simming less than it should.
If obedience is better than doomblade are people going venth for prog?


Venthyr is already the preferred covenant if you wanna play both sub and sin.
Even if Ob was bad, it wouldn't matter. :p
& looking at the new sub sims for aoe, venth might now be the way to go.
im over here just still having fun pushing sbs
sbs is a super fun play style
as assa main since wod it just feels so smooth
What is the slot for obedience head and?
cloak
ob would be cloak
OK it's cool then
Oh so I can slap either doomblade or obedience in my cloak nice
Also 235 cloak on my server is 4K now, don’t know what happened
But lost 18k
!guide
when iam hearing - u are fine and beautiful and ur choice is valid! here iam starting to worry! sounds like a trap!
only the guys in the sub channel need to worry, because he didnt tell them they are beautiful
you have to play venthyr survival hunter or youre bad
better?
YES!
btw my renown stays in venthyr ye? how long does it take to go back from necro?
no need to grind from scratch
i hope
1 reset. start monday, finish tues
ok fine.
i will wait then till mythic raids and see what top dogs pick for prog
if guilds even let rogues on prog lol
Looks like lots of ST, in chains. the meta may shift between sub & sin but both should find a spot
i will swap any lego or spec or cov if it brings even 1% more deeps xD
same, just getting eager to make a move. hard waiting for these last few hotfixes & tuning changes to see which way to play the start
im kinda set anyways, just wondering if mikanikos will go live like this 😄
Probably will get tuned post live
but why would u not let a rogue to progress?
So the obedience leggo vers buff extends another 12sec?
rogue was not very popular in CN for melee raid spots given they didn't provide extra benefits
and 9.1 does not change this, rogue is heavily tuning dependent
its just that rogue is atm seemingly very well tuned (in 9.1)
The worse a group's tanks are, the more value we bring
retribution also is very popular rn so i assume its tuned very high
Kyrian retribution legendary looks sick for aoe
i don't have exact numbers and i don't think a comparison cross class is reasonable before we at least go into normal/heroic week
delete rogue from the game?
Is the 2 rogues with sylvanas dagger issue still a thing?
do you already know which domination socket bonus you are using? so blood, unholy or frost ?
Yes, they're aware of it though and probably getting fixed soon.
Unholy gem set, 1 of each dps gem on top
Ah good to hear, thanks! That sounded janky as fuck LUL
hard to tell
ceverion you are gonna stay Necro or go to vent?
Most likely stay necro
but you won't have the daggers very fast
yeah yeah so time to fix it
so i wouldn't worry to much about them rn
