yeah totally, if your guild is hitting 2% on a boss routinely with a burn execute phase

thorny pond
#

so yea

simple wadi
#

Like wiping burn phase for eye (I don’t suspect this will happen) you would want Zold

royal cliff
#

you still may get more value from zold

tulip halo
#

Ok

thorny pond
#

The problem with zold is until you start reaching that point in fights, it's a dead leggo

simple wadi
#

In general doom blade will be really strong if you aren’t super undergeared as a guild (ie top 100 prog)

tulip halo
#

Ye true that beach

thorny pond
#

and even then the last 30% is often fraught with Single target and lust

#

where doomblade gains MORE value

royal cliff
#

yeah then it becomes a factor of how long do you stay in that execute burn

#

if you can pump a shitton of full bleed envenoms into something, doom is still prob stronger

thorny pond
#

It was big for sire because adds got value from it +P3 was the hardest part and it was basically all Zold range

alpine latch
#

So there's an item that bumps up your conduits to 226? Is that for all conduits, random ones, or specific ones?

alpine latch
#

fuck

tulip halo
#

Ok

alpine latch
#

I thought you could boost them all to 226 THEN you could only get 1 rank at a time

thorny pond
#

Good news is, you can "farm" them

alpine latch
#

Guess not

tulip halo
#

So basicly just need to see how 9.1 mythic willl require burning....

gusty mirage
#

that would make more sense

alpine latch
#

Can we? Do the new item levels drop from m+ this week?

gusty mirage
#

but this is blizzard we're talking about @alpine latch

alpine latch
#

lol right?

winged basin
#

Somebody said Zold for prog earlier so that’s probably why the question comes up PepeLaughKEKLULW

thorny pond
#

Often times more overall damage is just better than execute damage

gusty mirage
#

Zold's only useful in prog if you're missing a DPS check boss

#

and need more execute damage

thorny pond
#

especially if you have SPriest and DPS warriors

tulip halo
#

Well in 9.0 we got to sludgemythic and dmg wasnt rly an issue ever....

gusty mirage
#

yeah exactly

tulip halo
#

Ppl just failing on chains n shit

#

Back for doom and leg for zold... and prioring doom for now inguess

#

Thx all :)!

gusty mirage

#

If you are venthyr ? You dont ask the question, the choice is obedience right ?

gusty mirage
#

correct

gleaming jackal
#

sub or assass for prog?

mossy python
#

assa

winged basin
#

Whichever you enjoy

#

All specs are pretty viable

gleaming jackal
#

ill stick to assass then

hot helm
#

how long does it take to farm 40 if we swapped now?

gusty mirage
#

if you're sub 40

winged basin
#

Sub >= Sin > Outlaw

gusty mirage
#

so super quick

mossy python
#

few days

ashen creek
#

Made this gear slot breakdown for looking at early gearing strategies and what slots you'll be saving for stuff. Purple represents higher ilvl from kel'thuzzad / Sylvannas while red are boe's to go for early.

hot helm
#

so venthyr is optimal for sub/assa? is it a throw to play necro assa/sub, or just minimal?

winged basin
#

^

hot helm
#

is swapping back still 2 weeks time-gated?

gusty mirage
#

yeah, but there's a hotfix coming that'll be instant

#

one time

fallen arch
#

I just swapped back from necro to venthyr and I fucking hate it

hot helm
#

oh shit? really?

hot helm
#

whats the feel with venthry?

fallen arch
#

Sbs feels so much better in keys

#

As sin

crisp steppe
#

@gusty mirage can u farm the world boss repeatedly

gusty mirage
#

no just once per week

crisp steppe
#

Kk ty

hot helm
#

thats so sick

gusty mirage
inner temple
royal cliff
#

Yeah honestly I've been everything, and venthyr in m+ felt so god awful that I'm fine with taking a slight single target hit to have SBS

gusty mirage
#

I just miss fleshcraft

#

it's very apparent that I'm missing it now on bursting week

hot helm
#

sbs doesn't feel super good in pvp though

fallen arch
#

I’m venthyr for prog and then straight back to necro

inner temple
#

fack that oz, staying necro until heroic week tuning happens lol

long furnace
#

yeah just switched to ventr and m+ feels so much worse

fallen arch
fallen arch
long furnace
#

and the shield was cool also 😦

gusty mirage
#

I didn't dare try assassination as venthyr in m+

#

lmao

inner temple
#

fleshcraft is at least useful, door feels like a wasted ability

gusty mirage
#

it doesn't feel like a wasted ability it's just bad

#

lmao

inner temple
#

meaning its wasted because i dont use it lol

gusty mirage
#

so your feelings are 100% reflective of reality

#

yeah I don't blame you

#

1s cast to move 40 yards on a class that has a caked in movement speed increase PES_HuhWtf

thorny pond
#

If it was instant...

inner temple
#

yeah instant & i would change my tune in a heart beat

hasty crater
#

Its a little bit further mage blink with a long cast time lul

gusty mirage
#

like it has some cute niche uses

shadow pivot
#

instant would be busted

gusty mirage
#

but like bruh

#

there was a soulbind ability in beta that made it instant iirc

#

and that was quickly changed lol

shadow pivot
#

was instant on ptr at first if i remember correctly

#

*beta

inner temple
#

yeah it was

hasty crater
#

Would it be ? Night fae have like instant blinks

shadow pivot
#

defo not 40yards tho

hot helm
#

do you think obidience will get nerfed like kyrian in 9.0?

royal cliff
#

their blink also still goes through effects

hasty crater
#

But they have 4. We get 1 then

royal cliff
#

an instant teleport is diff than an instant blink

spice spire
winged basin
long furnace
#

hope we wil get rewarded for being obedient vent bois

hasty crater
#

Said this in sub, a covenant specific legendary that is bis in dslice and st for all 3 specs is bound to be nerfed most likely

#

But you never know, maybe we get lucky

long furnace
#

i kinda dont understand why the convent legendaries arent bis

#

whats the point of making them?

spice spire
#

I’ve read this argument for four days straight

winged basin
#

TRUE

spice spire
#

I’d rather just not

hasty crater
#

Doomblade is assasin only tho

winged basin
#

BIG TRUE

spice spire
hasty crater
#

Obedience is 3 specs

gusty mirage
winged basin
#

Quake, the party never ends 😉

gusty mirage
#

At this rate, it'll be 10.0 and people will still be speculating an obedience nerf

spice spire
gusty mirage
thorny pond
#

I'm emotionally ill

gusty mirage
#

you too?

copper sundial
#

hmm would you run a heavier vers build with obedience?

thorny pond
#

Always have been

spice spire
#

But in all seriousness. It doesn’t matter, if it happens, it happens, if it doesn’t it doesn’t

crisp steppe
#

U would sim it @copper sundial

fallen arch
#

It does matter to me

#

Why let me play fucking vampire to be relevant while I actually just want to be a stinky boy

#

Of they nerf obedience I’m gonna be super pissed

winged basin
#

a stinky boy

spice spire
winged basin
#

Ecks dee

spice spire
#

It’s a w in the end regardless

winged basin
#

^

fallen arch
#

Yea at least there’s that

spice spire
#

Either you get a busted covenant, or you can swap back like nothing happened

winged basin
#

How does that work if you already have the first quest to swap?

copper sundial
#

honestly if you're 40 on both its not a big deal changing over

gusty mirage
#

I'd assume you drop the quest

#

and just talk to the npc

spice spire
#

Yeah I’m not sure Zaey

winged basin
#

Cause i already turned in first weeks

gusty mirage
#

oh then I'd just do the quest and bank the freebie

fallen arch
#

Ye

winged basin
#

Just gotta wait til Tuesday to be vampire boi again

spice spire
#

I’m gonna do the quest and bank the freeb for a potential swap back

chrome widget
#

Same thinking I'm leaving necro to go venth right now then bank freebie

winged basin
#

Yeah that’s my plan

small island
#

whats this freebie u are talking about?

spice spire
#

I think that’s the play. And venthyr isn’t bad at all. Flag is a super good ability. Door of shadows vs fleshcraft is just unlucky

winged basin
#

Venth m+ isn’t as bad as it’s being made either

#

It’s not sbs

spice spire
winged basin
#

But it’s still not horrendous

trail mica
#

Flag actually feels like a rogue ability

#

like a pretty nice cooldown

fallen arch
#

It just feels suboptimal when you are used to playing necro

#

But ye it’s fine I guess for the time being

long furnace
#

sbs is just a super cool ability

fallen arch
#

Looking forward to playing it with obedience. Gonna be sweeet burst windows

trail mica
winged basin
#

Yeah not bad at all. I gotta say after raiding last night I did like the gemstone window gameplay from necro

trail mica
#

even as an outlaw it feels like a big cd

arctic hare
#

So obedience feels like a combustion? Despite the fact that Idk what combustion feels like, seems interesting enough

fallen arch
spice spire
#

Burst wise, probably

#

Mechanics wise, bit less 😛

fallen arch
#

Nah, combustion has you frantically trying to get as much casts in a single window, so not really the same

trail mica
#

combined with AR and BS roll, its like you are on steroids

arctic hare
#

Oh, whereas with our haste we’re fine in that 15 second window

long furnace
#

can u go above 100% haste? i had 99% with the cube

winged basin
#

Combustion is a dance, Obedience Flag is a dance but you are break dancing with a dagger in both hands, one in the mouth, and your buttcheeks holding another on some roronoa zoro type shit

arctic hare
#

lol

#

Soooo

#

More fun?

#

I haven’t played fire mage lol

spice spire
trail mica
#

30% haste and 30% vers for 12-15 secs

#

when it lines up with Thrill from nadjia its like 50% haste and 30% vers

arctic hare
#

Wait, I’m sorry, 30% haste?

fallen arch
arctic hare
#

And vers?

#

Okayyyyyy, yeah, now I see why its so much better than the others

#

I’d love to have 15% DR

trail mica
#

Stats on my shitty PTR rogue

#

with obedience flag

arctic hare
#

Scary

#

Very scary lol

spice spire
arctic hare
#

Does it make you feel like a DH in bfa?

gusty mirage
arctic hare
#

When you stacked vers as hard as you could?

trail mica
#

shitty as in 205 ilvl

#

i think

arctic hare
#

Humanzd, think about what it’d be like with hero?

#

If its flat 30% you’d go over 100%, and trust me, one you hit that point, there is no going back lol

#

Think I’ve only ever done that in torghast or something, but its still absolutely ridiculous

#

You know the torghast power where it gives adrenaline rush, vendetta and shadow blades?

#

Once you hit 100% haste with that, there is absolutely no way you’re gonna be able to spend too much energy

terse talon
#

sry for very noob question, but I have googled but couldnt really find a good answer... I just got vent and renown 42 but on the vent campain ive only got 9/10 completed.

arctic hare
#

I think rogue might be my favorite class to play in torg

#

The new campaign part is availble next week isn’t itv

#

?

trail mica
#

after playing my havoc and prot pala i can safely say that i despise rogue in torghast...

terse talon
#

ok so its supposed to be 9/10 then ^^^just making sure so I dont have it bugged

trail mica
#

those two pull everything and just mow down

#

and my brand new monk literally dances through torghast with 1 anima power

arctic hare
#

Oh?

#

Hmm

trail mica
#

you spam heal

#

and you do aoe dmg

arctic hare
#

I haven’t played havoc in here

arctic hare
trail mica
#

it stacks

#

just spam vivify

arctic hare
#

That, is scccccccccary

gusty mirage
#

pull 35k dps just spamming vivify

#

its hilarious

arctic hare
#

Hahahah, absolutely beautiful

lost wharf
#

What does "No Sylv dagger" mean in the pin? Is it not simmed or is it not good?

trail mica
#

rogue is literally the worst torghast class in my experience

inner temple
#

not simmed

#

i dont know of a worse one, maybe doing it as a holy priest

lost wharf
#

Ah okay

spice spire
#

It was added back to PTR literally last night

violet hemlock
#

isnt mage pretty shit for torgast

lost wharf
inner temple
#

lol true

#

nah mage is fine

long furnace
#

yeah i tried 4 classes and rogue is the worst for sure

spice spire
#

Rogue isn’t even that bad monkaW

#

Past 200 it’s pretty easy to do an 8 now

winged basin
grim jay
winged basin
#

^

shadow pivot
#

for 9.1 thorgasts and doing 4+stars rogue doesnt feel good

inner temple
#

rogue is "fine i'll do this if i have to", not saying that its hard @spice spire . saying that its not fun.

shadow pivot
#

but being able to just stealth through content kill only bosses and get your soul ash in 5min is the best

trail mica
#

rogue is one of the few classes in torghast that can't just steamroll

inner temple
#

yeah

fallen arch
#

Hate torgy on rogue

#

Chore

long furnace
#

People genrally hated thorghast so they fixked it by making you full clear it 😄 fking sadists man

fallen arch
#

Can’t find the fun in there

arctic hare
#

lol

#

Wait, they really went through with the full clear crap?

violet hemlock
#

well u dont need to for soulash

arctic hare
#

But for the so called box of many things???

#

I haven’t been able to play just yet, so I’m basically blind until the raid

warped moon
#

trying to 4+ star a run is shit as a solo rogue but gotta say stealthing thru to last boss and just running at it over and over is pretty efficient soul ash farm

arctic hare
#

Not getting back till the 6th, so I’ll have exactly one day to prepare lol, well, maybe not

arctic hare
lost wharf
#

Box of many things is just a tree for torgast. It doesn't seem too OP.

arctic hare
#

Hmm, good to know

inner temple
#

it def has some nice things on it, didnt look enough to say "OP or not"

lost wharf
arctic hare
#

You’re kidding me…

long furnace
#

😄

lost wharf
#

Not the next floor... Like you do all 5 floors and get graded at the end.

arctic hare
#

5 floors

lost wharf
#

Yea, they reduced it to 5

arctic hare
#

Oh, right, they changed it

inner temple
arctic hare
#

lol, true

inner temple
#

feels like it really made a huge difference too

long furnace
#

yeah 1 floor less that is the only cool thing 😄

hot helm
#

wait so with the new returning to covenant change - can we swap back and forth now? or is it just moved from 1 week transfer from 2 weeks?

arctic hare
#

But still, to get to the next layer I have to get “4 stars”?

lost wharf
#

Yea, I personally didn't find it too hard once I managed to figure out what gives points

arctic hare
#

I shall have to figure it out then lol

lost wharf
#

I only got it on my 3rd try tho.

inner temple
#

dratnos has a video breaking it all down

#

what gives what score*

arctic hare
#

I’ll, try to watch that

worn panther
lost wharf
#

I also found a bug(?) that got me free score, Idk how much tho

arctic hare
#

lol

#

Nice

violet hemlock
#

I got 4 stars first try... 5 is hard tho

west cove
#

do we need 5 star to unlock layer 10?

steel bane
#

do you gain anything for going 5?

odd hazel
lost wharf
odd hazel
#

in order for the vault you need a 5

violet hemlock
#

Adamant Vaults unlock

dry copper
#

160 score to unlock

#

next level

lost wharf
#

The adamant vaults are just cosmetics tho, if I read that right

arctic hare
odd hazel
#

you get sockets from them too

dry copper
#

adamant vaults can drop the conduit upgrades/sockets

odd hazel
#

you can*

steel bane
#

but you need it on the box right?

odd hazel
#

yes

steel bane
#

you can't actually get there right now

arctic hare
#

At least they’re giving a reason to go for 5 star

dry copper
#

5 star easy if you go sub

lost wharf
#

Oh, so you can infinitely grind adamant vaults for sockets and conduits?

odd hazel
#

yes

#

its a chance though

lost wharf
#

That's dumb

odd hazel
#

not sure how big a chance to get them are though

lost wharf
#

Did any1 try getting 5stars in a group? Is it easier or harder?

worn panther
#

It's not likely, prob you only will get the cosmetics ands new pets in most runs

hot helm
#

how is venthyr assa in m+?

odd hazel
#

it does fine

spice spire
#

Seems good

#

Pins have it best w obedience

arctic hare
#

Indeed

winged basin
#

Can confirm is fine

worn panther

#

What is the sin bug that's referenced in the Drive doc?

hot helm
#

i just feel kinda intimidated to farm up venthyr from 0 rn

lost wharf
warped umbra
#

Hey guys the new sims for venthyr are only for obedience at the top. How do the venthyr soulbinds rank when using doomblade instead of obedience?

hot helm
thorny pond
#

Not much going on.

hollow oasis
#

covenant quests give 2 renown when you fully complete them

thorny pond
#

Plenty of free time to farm

lost wharf
hot helm
hollow oasis
#

so half the renown is done when doing the quests, then you can grind the last levels, im 36 and i switched yesterday

spice spire
#

Unsure about DSlice

any use still playing necro assa? or just swap to venthyr for all content

worn panther
inner temple
lost wharf
odd hazel
#

i just keep seeing his name

#

people shouldnt take them serious tbh

#

people keep mentioning tier lists here and its cringe

#

wowhead is a much better source for the scores

spice spire
#

Videos create a much easier experience for many people and dratnos makes a lot

inner temple
#

who do you think writes the wowhead guides?

spice spire
#

I don’t think it’s inherently bad

warped umbra
odd hazel
#

"feels lists"

spice spire
#

I think it’s inherently bad to try to do everything at once and try to cookie cutter all information without a more precise source. It’s impossible to be 100% correct about every single thing in wow unless you just slog nonstop

#

Naguura came in one day and asked about the state of rogue. Cev answered, who i’d label a bit of a better source for rogue than naguura herself. But not everyone has time/can do that

inner temple
# odd hazel people shouldnt take them serious tbh

i should clarify because im coming off a bit hostile, no, noone should take anything anyone says as pure unadulterated truth, you should always use your own brain to make intelligent decisions. with that said, dratnos is generally correct more often than not and is a good resource for wow related content

spice spire
#

Last part sketch. But he’s more knowledgeable about many things in WoW than I. So I can definitely say that with confidence

winged basin
#

I am in this discord 24/7 and see dratnos pop up MAYBE once a week

#

if that lol

spice spire
#

But I think it’s good practice to take everything with a grain of salt happybear

#

Recently he came up about the raid tier lists

#

They were a bit fried ngl

odd hazel
#

^

winged basin
#

Big true^ specially brand new stuff that nobody has actually played live yet

inner temple
spice spire
#

Sub bottom tier with outlaw ahead of sin was hella sketch alone

odd hazel
#

feels like more a feels list then anything

inner temple
arctic hare
#

Probably is

odd hazel
#

oof on those feels then being wrong

winged basin
#

Is he the one saying Frost number one, fury number 2 lmao

spice spire
#

Frost doesn’t look bad next tier kekwait

#

Idk number one good but definitely better than before YEP

#

People also though frost was cracked at the beginning of CN

#

And it got nerfed to hell YEP

winged basin
#

I just remember a guildy telling me rogue won’t see play cause fury is so good KEKW KEKW

#

Cause a tier list said fury was the end all be all lmfao

arctic hare

I can’t see that ever happening

arctic hare
#

lol

#

So 2 of us are not raiding on rogue

#

100%

inner temple
winged basin
arctic hare
#

I think I’m the only one of my guild trying to raid rogue

odd hazel
#

im the only rogue on my raid team so feelsgood

winged basin
#

They only want one of us for mythic 😦 I want both of us

merry mountain
#

My GM is a rogue 😎

hot helm
#

imagine being able to swap covenants whenever

hollow river
#

My guild doesn’t have enough raiders to be picky about taking 2 rogues

gilded grove
#

To be fair, I've played with Dratnos, and he's a gamer. He can pretty much play any class/spec at a relatively high level, and he's knowledgeable. Idk why people hate him other than the fact that he went from being an unkown mythic raider, to a caster and prominent youtube content creator.

winged basin
#

Ours doesn’t either

#

Not enough good ones atleast

spice spire
grim tangle
#

people hate dratnos because he made tier lists and max told them tier lists are bad

hot helm
#

ALL HAIL MAX

winged basin
#

Max is god tho KEKW

spice spire
#

No I told myself based on the rogue listing alone “this list is probably bad”

arctic hare
#

ALL HAIL MAX WHOEVER HE IS

hot helm
#

PRAISE BE HIS BEARD

spice spire
#

And it’s a bit deep fried

winged basin
#

A BIT DEEP FRIED LMAO

#

I’m totally stealing that

arctic hare
#

lol

sharp panther
#

max and dratnos are both good guys, tier lists are bad, but dratnos is a content creator so he made content, its very whatever

spice spire
#

Doesn’t mean “DUDE IS SHIT HAS NO CREDENTIALS HE SUCKS” it just means, it’s a tier list and most are bad

gilded grove
#

Max is the raid leader of a world first guild. He looks at things from a completely different angle than most people. He doesn't even raid during the race to world first, because it's easier to shot call from a stream than it is to be in the game and overlook things. So certain classes/specs are better for specific mechanics to be able to make fights "easier" so they can cheese things and clear it faster.

spice spire

Hey you beat me to it

Deadly Poison doesn't apply on some casts like Garrote, Rupture, and Shiv.
It's a minor bug but "notable" in that it does have some noticeable impact on DPS.
Should be around a 100-200 dps loss

Neat!

#

Well cause tier lists are pure opinion. Only tier list I need is warcraftlogs weekly recap

gilded grove
#

Also, I'm pretty sure Max said pre-patch tier lists prior to tuning are bad, I don't think he thinks tier lists as a whole are bad, considering CL posts tier lists on their website, or used to.

#

I havent been to it in a while.

spice spire
#

Now I don’t have to give an answer

spice spire
#

Not top top, but like top 3

heavy forge
#

Feral YEAH

arctic hare
#

Heh, used to main a feral, before it got dull and I switched to sin

tribal marlin
#

with Sylvanas dagger we'll reach the top :pog:

heavy forge
#

I still play it everytime I can, went rogue this tier for a change

arctic hare
#

Surprisingly enough, feral helped a crap ton with learning sin, though, i had already started in BFA

heavy forge
#

I'm like a cat with a assassination backup every now and then :D

arctic hare
#

lol

#

Yeah, if there is one thing I miss

#

ITS THE RUN SPEED ER MA GERG ROGUE BE SLOW

#

Without its movement speed abilities that is

heavy forge
#

yeah I feel you

arctic hare
#

But I’ve grown accustomed to it

odd hazel
#

i mean, thje reason i dislike tier lists

#

is because people feel like you have to follow them

#

and tier lists with out knowledge

#

or jsut guessing

#

helps no one in term of actually accurately placing them

#

feral is fun

#

the energy is just so bad

heavy forge
#

well feral energy was never a drowning in type

#

maybe except late legion with dumb build

odd hazel
#

it just makes the class feel bad, not sure how it is now but. i felt like it was lacking something

arctic hare
#

Yeah, i hated having to pool energy, I could never get it down

west cove
#

so i made layer9 with 5 star flawless

#

now what

odd hazel
#

wait for layer 10

#

we dont have acces to vault yet

#

so GG

west cove
#

go master assasin sub build

#

if u guys struggle with assa or outlaw

odd hazel
#

i was able to get 4 as sin

#

not really trying though

#

it'll be easier once we get deeper into the tree

heavy forge
#

didn't enter thoghast yet, had to get some renown first

west cove
#

so do we need layer 10 5 star for vault or

#

is it done

warm pumice
#

do i go with zoldyck or do i wait for the new leggy (new dinged rogue) so i havent crafted a leggy yet

spice spire

If you’re going venthyr, I’d probably still do both

Because a legendary is big

But if you’re not, obviously can’t do obedience so craft Doomblade and level it ASAP bearJAM

Using consumables will increase your damage, however the difference between oil/stone/potion combinations are very minor (within 0.5% of each other). You can sim the difference for yourself by pasting this pastebin underneath your /simc input, in the "advanced sim" section of raidbots: https://pastebin.com/Lbxc7afJ

Deadly Poison doesn't apply on some casts like Garrote, Rupture, and Shiv.

The only reason it might not go down is because less people are using TSM now to post and are using the new AH

I don't think flying was ever achieved exactly at the same time as a raid openend

#

Imma just stock up for next week tho. It'll probably be like Dekai says and it just drops after a week or two

kind talon
#

Nah it will steadily go down

alpine latch
#

Yes, I didn't say it'll be permanent.

#

But it will go down, and stay lower than what it is now

After flying releases

#

^^^

#

I imagine it won’t be stable for a bit tho

alpine latch
#

The average WoW player isn't an AotC raider, let alone CE. They don't care about raids opening up. Flying is even easier to get now

winged basin
#

I care pepehands

The prices will 100% go down, even if it's only for a week

And they'll stay lower

The average WoW player doesn't raid

So that's a dumb comparison

He will try tho

alpine latch

We're not the average players

winged basin

what are you saying?

so like here's Anchor Weed when 8.2 (flying) launched. Prices exploded cause new raid even with flying

Lol

lost wharf
#

Whatever, you do you. If you have so much money you can have that many consumeables laying around the issues for values of herbs won't concern you regardless.

spice spire
#

Yeah with new Raid, they’ll eventually drop. But not for a month probably

alpine latch
#

EVERYONE should be stocked up with consumables. 9.1 didn't introduce new consumables, not stocking up was a massive mistake if you didn't.

You won’t be bis but it’ll be fine

winged basin
#

That’s why I bought 300 augments for 250 a pop

vestal wren
#

the versa buff duration was to low, once fixed the value of obedience was high enough to make it the top pick

lavish quarry
#

great, thx

vestal wren
#

obedience is atm at the point that its the strongest choice for every content on sub/sin

spice spire
#

Appreciate

winged basin
#

We do love them

vestal wren
#

i didn't know that too, we just seemingly missed to update the implementation earlier

winged basin
#

Nothing gets my willy going like new sims or a phat pin from whispyr

vestal wren
#

and when koji did update it we where like "oh, i thought it already did"

#

its good to have stuff working, it means sims are correct

#

even tho it barely matters given you can't craft covenant legendary items this week

#

i think there is a balance patch expected next week or mythic week

spice spire
#

Don’t say the thing monkaW

vestal wren
#

but its hard to predict if anything changes, e.g. the 25% legendary for arcane mage seems like it could potentially change

winged basin
#

Ahh finally break time, now I can stare at this one discord channel

tbh i would rly like to have a stacked graph to see how every spec/class is doing

the sin sim is inlcuding the poison bug yeah

Subs higher st usually only gets to shine when you play brain afk at the boss. Assa is way more forgiving if you have downtime.

one thing to keep in mind from the pins is that this is in mythic gear

@trail anvil i like you pfp, but its just the before (gray) after (green)

vestal wren

#

Outlaw.

vestal wren
#

so i don't feel that you can make a mistake by choosing assassination over subtlety

spice spire
#

I don’t either

#

The specs are fairly balanced and well done imo

trail anvil
#

Sin also also a bit easier

#

imo

vestal wren
# kind talon Outlaw.

i do like outlaw, i hope they find a way to buff it on st without making it op on aoe

#

so that it can compete in raiding

kind talon
#

Just give it aura buff and nerf flurry kekw

spice spire
#

Outlaw suffers a bit but compared to other specs I think rogue is done well

vestal wren
#

as nice as bf is it seems to hold the spec back

kind talon
#

Ezpz

trail anvil
kind talon
#

Or just

#

Change bf

#

Make it charges again, or nerf it’s damage and buff st

#

Can do many different things

trail anvil
#

I think its part of the "class design" of outlaw that bliz likes though

kind talon
#

Ya

trail anvil
#

part of the sword and board feel of the class

kind talon
#

I mean it’s not like they need to imo

vestal wren
#

i think it gives outlaw distinct gameplay

kind talon
#

Would be nice to have competitive st but

vestal wren
#

thats healthy i guess

kind talon
#

Yeah

#

It’s a clearly aoe focused spec

fallen arch
#

What’s wrong as rogue with having a meta spec for m+ and 2 fine specs for raiding?

kind talon
#

Which is cool

vestal wren
#

making bf uptime lower could work, but i think it feels worse to play

trail anvil
#

Yeah...

vestal wren
#

i also like how subtlety could potentially be good in m+

trail anvil
spice spire
#

Subtlety seems very strong in m+

vestal wren
#

i rly struggle to judge subtlty in 9.1 m+

spice spire
#

As long as you do large pulls, sub is pumping

fallen arch
#

Sin is good for m+ too in the right hands, it just lacks the extra cc that gouge provides

#

Same for sub

vestal wren
#

because the big downside of sub is still low target cleave

spice spire
#

Lord and savior DK pulled 8.9 in a 19 mists last night

vestal wren
#

and this is the area sin/outlaw shine

#

what kinda makes sin/outlaw more well ronded

trail anvil
#

Sub might fill the roll that Fire Mage did with pride and blow up the tormented mobs

spice spire
#

Sub has huge AoE just worst cleave in game too

wild lion
#

raidbots sims dont account sylvana dagger proc, or why is it lower than the other dagger?
