Huh?
which should I follow between skulker wing and quantum device?, . raidbot sim or the guide from pin?
I wouldn't recommend Dauntless for m+
You'd just play Theotar tbh
or Nadja with triple
Always personal sims over everything
using Raidbots, skulker wings output is more higher..
#SimItKing
ok. noted. thank you
So true
How are you liking hte raid so far? @limber lion @balmy condor
Praise be the phrase
what missives for doomblade i forgot
crit/haste
ok ty
or crit/vers if you plan to play sub
nah
bloodmallet shows that venthyr is about 1k dps higher in singletarget than necro, is this real? thats about 10% dps
I'm doing normal tonight heroic tomorrow/sat
same, i start raid tomorrow/saturday
We shall see how it fares
So far all the bosses are neat mechanically
Painsmith is fucking rough
Most of the bosses are very, very easy. But there are a few that are a bit rough. It's a good mix. Nothing too too exciting to be honest.
A lot of players on logs are going EP over BS for ST, is there a specific reason for this? Though BS was supposed to be bes
is vent bis also without vent lego ?
i wish all of heroic was on the level of painsmith and not just one hard 6th boss lol
some people just prefer EP, its not a huge difference in damage plus higher stats will favor it im sure
Alright thanks
in ST yeah, necro is still top for M+ right now i believe.
I like getting a BS proc. Little hits of dopamine every proc
hard content is fun
Why you gotta strim on a day with 70+ patients king? You already know I’m there tho
That's why we do mythic.
cant lmfao
well yea next week thats the plan
heroic should still not be a cakewalk
I really like it
the first 5 are way too easy
we shouldnt be able to go in at 226 and wipe the floor
theyre not designed for you
Venthyr - Obedience: Versatility granted reduced to 0.5% per stack of Flagellation (was 1% per stack).
they are hating us
its quite obvious
Perhaps from your POV. Still meaningful to some players who prog AOTC for the patch
well yea, im saying that i personally would like it to be more difficult
usually in raid i just do my usual rotation of keep all ur bleeds up and if u can fit an envenom in before one runs out do it, is there anything different with doomblade cause ive been using zoldyck im nerco if it makes a difference
Granted I will say, pain smith is baller.
?
where do you see that
website
In Chains of Domination, players are going to earn new Legendary items that will augment Covenant class abilities for the first time. As with the previous Legendaries, our goal with these items is to expand the number of choices players have when crafting and equipping Legendary items. Based on our testing and community feedback, we’ve conclude...
i mean people are killing painsmith lol

sub nerds in shambles
¯_(ツ)_/¯
I’m in shambles

like the .5% reduction still wont change much, it will still be top contender will it not?
wait the sims 
@balmy condor Help! We're lost!
panic ensues
Everybody panic QUICK
mom dad i dont know what to do
its probably dead in the water.
blizzard was that really the night fae change they needed?
rip obedience man
I don’t know if that’s completely true there chief
But
Unlucky

They need to nerf sub to things return as it should be 
everyone freaking out about obedience being slightly nerfed
yea, should be fine
and not talking about the fae stonks of toxic onslaught being buffed
slightly? that cut it in half lmao
the vers wasn't what made it strong?
Back to the basement, whispyr
sooo ? lets go necro ?
that cut the vers in half? not the cd reduction lmfaooooooo
the CDR made it giga
remember when obedience was really good for sub, and then it skyrocketed?
that version of obedience before it got fixed in sims, was worse than this
you still have the most important part untouched
its funny when people see something nerfed even a bit they freak out when they didnt even know why it was strong in the first place
That’s why I only speak in fluent 
w/e ill just wait for sims but that does suck
Obedience gonna be fine, calm down please
its not even that bad of a nerf
Lmfao
but did they buff the druid venthyr legendary
?
OBEDIENCE RUINED
doomsday came!
Will probably still be bis, but not by so much
LMFAO the pin
can't find the panick button

they buffed toxic onslaught and everyone's ignoring it still. Poor Fae rogues 
xD
is it better than doomblade tho
it wasnt even the reason it was strong @odd heath
thats what matters
is it just me thats more triggered at the lack of boomie nerfs than obedience being touched

Yeah, this tbh
We will get sims soon I guess
boomies need buffs theyre weak ;)
boomies OP even though they cried for buffs
let me get a fucking drink I'll sim it
blame sepsis being shit 
D:
ZOOM
take your meds zoom boy
Don't sim it get drink and watch people panic
New wowhead article nerf at obidience

Don’t ever doubt the prophet 

xdddddddddd
The bringer of stats 
Not all have the money to afford a therapyst Whispyr, a lil bit of empathy pl0x 
y'all actually have healthcare?
tbh i was more worried they would nerf the cd reduction
obedience has to be better for my sanity
the vers in half is meh
i dont wanna delete my doomblade yet
@slow marsh yeah cdr nerf would've been so gross
Well
cdr nerf would've killed it for sure
you guys are fucking psychopaths lmfao
The vers is less important for us than Sub
we take that as a compliment
nah just calm down
it's been an amazing 30s watching the melt down lol
Ya'll are fucking crazy, let me tell ya
bunch of chickens(the sky is falling)
I'm more a sociopath 
that's why I play rogue 
if you guys wouldn't mind rerolling that'd be cool
when sim 
Man I just want a live camera view of all of the CF's in this discord as soon as the wowhead article went up lmao
meanwhile...

@onyx wind 
I'm just curious how everyone in here was so worried about a nerf for the last 2 weeks
hmmm... is it time to go back to necro?
is somehow panicking
even though you all freaked out about a possible nerf for like ever
lol increasing the duration from 8s to 12s takes it from the worst legendary in the game to almost not the worst legendary in the game
hey, I feel attacked by this, I need you to apologize right now 
Obedience
That's what we call progress Koji

I was waiting a nerf to put sub back into trash can and laugh on main subs 
Funny is how we thought we would be good anyway before Obedience became the play :P
Toxic Onslaught is almost unsalvageable
right up there with maw rattle now @fleet anchor #blessed
And now its paniiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiic
It's just garbage
hi baby

I hated the fae ability so much. I hated having an unempowered stealth ability
I think the play is to make everything look garbage on sims, so they dont nerf us :^)
so is obedience still bis if ur venthyr? i assume it is right?
"Using the stealth ability gives you Adrenaline Rush, Vendetta, and Shadowblades at 50% effectiveness" ?
they really didnt nerf balance druid venthyr legendary? 
yea must be
@fleet anchor used your buddy's guidance to play some fights
is So'leah's Secret Technique 233 worth more then a phial 220 for st?
it all went well
ok, ty!
the cdr is what I figured made it nuts as it aligned better with vendetta and vanish
Obedience is almost certainly still BiS because the value isn't really being halved. The CDR is still unchanged
Whisp gonna once again provide us big 5head numbers soon and noone will look at it as always
😔
The level of drama this discord has could be easily used for a tv show 😂
this is so stupid
It is probably close to Doomblade though
YOU ARE NOT THE FATHER
^
There's no way to sim this with an override though, I'll have to make code changes
no override spell data done yet :D?
ok ok
that sounds like alot of work. I pray that your coffees taste grand and your days be kind to you for doing that
Guys guys it’ll be fine. I am almost positive with this nerf obedience will still be better. DONT QUOTE MY THOUGHTS IM A 
Inc cdr nerf
Vampire boys pepelaugh
HUSH
Thanks man
I knew this was the nerf they would do
do you know where? I'm hunting a little
there won't be another nerf

I mean..we all know obedience needed nerfed.. sky isn'
Proof?
sky isn't falling
Breath fellas
inb4 blizz makes it so the crit legendary is bis
quick guys, reroll hunter

Toxic Onslaught to the moon 
the year of the spear
Never. I'd rather play frost mage
vitality sacrifice new bis
surv hunter or pussy
no pls
I'm just going to change it in code now. There's no reason to really have the "base" version in sims since it's not available
Year of the deer king
overlap soaks on sylvanas = vitality sacrifice bis
sure, lemme know when I can run the world of sims
15 mins or so probably
sure sure
rerolling to DH 
I feel like a schmuck for not running blindside/master assassin, but I feel like I get more use out of elaborate planning/subterfuge
While you guys korean drama the shit out of this nerf..
Moral question, would you sacrifice like 70 dps for the ability to switch between specs and not having to go back to the sanctum, change conduits and all that stuff? (I've been raiding as both law and assa)
Heimir sims better both for outlaw and sin, but Mari sims -70 as Assa. Thoughts?
https://www.raidbots.com/simbot/report/9HtPMPM1j4e8hYMxU7GUPh
this tier no matter what I'll be getting cutting edge. I had to tap out in the last patch of bfa on nzoth, but I'm not gonna do that again
Is it worth rerolling my covenant to Venthyr and starting from scratch? Or should I just stick with Necro at this point? (I only just came back to rogue and just finished catching up my renown again.)
70 dps isn't exactly a ridiculous amount
is there any words on the extent of the obedience nerf?
so I've done it before for convenience purposes since conduit energy has to be a thing
vers cut in half, rest is the same. it's fine
Venthyr - Obedience: Versatility granted reduced to 0.5% per stack of Flagellation (was 1% per stack).
on a 5 minute fight, 70 dps is worth about 21000 damage total
If you're doing this make sure you consider where you're using each spec though. If you're using assassin for st/low cleave and outlaw for aoe type fights it's probably better to compare differences of losses between assassin st and outlaw dungeonslice
As someone who plays multiple specs/roles on multiple toons a 70dps loss would mean very little compared to the time flying to and from that awefule soulforge shit
its a 1% so unless you are a high level player, id do it
i think givin that vers is our 3rd best stat i think we are fine
the numbers are super small, but the damage always adds up, even at 1%
any chance for cli dropped somewhere?
what makes Obedience great is the CD reduction?
yeah ive read the tooltip i meant if we knew anything numerically sim wise
where the venth bois at
ez fix for you make 12 rouges so you can play each spec and coven and never loose dps

venthry FTW
truuuuu
We can ask Seri for a rebuild probably if needed
on mimiron?
next patch will fix it in 10months (didnt read anything)
with the tuning to Obedience will it still be better then Doomblade?
prob be closer
for venthr rogues
id think
guess ill wait for sims to update.
so the wowhead guide says if using master assassin, to open from stealth with mutilate. Why not ambush?
HAPL GOT NERF
honestly they didn't touch the CD reduction so i should be fine
WHY TEY DO THIS
more combo points
@balmy condor https://github.com/simulationcraft/simc/blob/0d7bf2493296c4bf44ce4cc252569b5fe50ed972/engine/class_modules/sc_rogue.cpp#L6443
think it's here
can we shadowstep through the balls on painsmith?
yes
Do we want to use sharpening stones and agi pot or oil and oil pot?
so how many of u guys going back to necro ?
necro boi since day 1
this chat:
never switching 


lmaoo
If you mean shadow step the actual balls, no. You get blasted
I will not go necro until it beats venthyr uncategorically
Venthyr forever
well there goes fucking 40k anima i spent into evrey building for venthyr and all the shitty mobs i've leveled the past months
as long as I dont have to go fae again, I'll be happy
I will never swap off of venthyr
Can someone explain to me why i'm losing dps in raid? I don't waste cp, i don't overcap energy, i know my rotation, i refresh garrote and rupture without problems, but still i lose dps on bosses and get green ranks
@median birch they both give 2 combo points if not crit, and 3 if crit, no?
Seems to be a lot of vampy bois in here
link your logs
Mut gives 4 if both attacks crit
Vampy rules btw
looks like im going back to kyrian 😢
ewwwww kyrian
yea ew why
@median birch oh, I see. Thanks!
I agree with the ew sentiment
No Problem!
kyrian has Bluether thats why
my raid is going to happen this weekend, anyone know if its better to stay necro atm or go venthyr for the raid?
Anyone know how many %dmg is lashing scar 252 ?
Guys do we want to use Shadowcare Oil or Sharpening Stone for single target?
Venthyr has theotar
Guides say different things
Using shadowcore +phantom fire brrr
theotar is the best character in SL
!oil
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
I'm going to be attempting the raid with my group this weekend, I will be attending as an assa rogue, anyone know if staying necro is still the play or is it better to go venthyr for the raid, i can't decide
It's almost like it's in the pins.
is it the sim in the pins?
Dmg to balls counts as padding in parses. #notworth
Doomblade is on the back right?
arent those at like max renown?
If you are already venthyr, it's not like the obedience nerf affects you anyways as you don't have it. Just stay venthyr, figure out what you wanna do next week.
Yes @primal turret
I don't see Obedience staying on top for sims, you're losing like 12% vers during a burst window - more than enough to put Doomblade and Zoldycks back on top for ST/Dslice IMO
versatility isnt what made obedience good, especially for assarogue
just wiat for the sims
Im glad I can still play necro, i find sbs really fun
Vers was not why it was good
Its not what made it good but its what put it over the top of the competing leggos
We got a big
alert in this channel.
Yeah, sbs is really fun to play.
Howabout people just wait 20 minutes for proper sims instead of using their time for wild speculation? 🙂
finally someone else that calls it ass rogue like I do
Go do some dailies or something lol
sims are already out
do we have a special button to make it stop? lol
obi 3rd best now
Called it :^)
they arent tho
no maw rattle buff wtf blizz 
this was actually a buff
just saw on whyspers @delicate bone
they are speculations from older sims
no you didnt
those are old sims
from before the buff
There will be a proper build soon.
is necro okay for assassination or should i switch to venryth ??
We know
the legendary isn't even out
He just said go Doomblade on sinm but still
Lets wait
answers now
dont be mad u switched for no reason @thorn crater
because people love to freak out over nothing
they are both good
most ppl won't notice the difference anyway
really disappointed they didnt nerf obedience 1 week after we already crafted it
This is the end of the world
Pretty sure if Obedience remains close to Doomblade we'll play it as Assa for coveniance
I was expecting this haha. Glad its done now so we can see what it will be like with sims before crafting.
how can you notice the difference in a change on something that doesn’t exist in the previous form
i mean even without obedience, venthyr is still the best so im confused
So is obedience bis for venthyr rouge..same as sub?
If we play obedience, we cant argue for priests to give us NF buff
wait
It was 🤣
so its good they nerfed it
venthyr will always win out in st sims just from lashing/dauntless
it's just by how much
you are seeing in real time why its bad to yell fire in a movie theater
i might vomit from crying rn
I'll wait for sims but even at 20 stacks it comes out to losing far more than 50-100 DPS from the lost vers
lolol right dude, its crazy
are you aware, that the lego gave it cdr?
People keep acting like the CDR alone is what made it #1, its not.
maybe stop talking so confidently when you're dumb as a rock
i thought that was the reason why
It was a honor bois to be on the hype train with you
Dont worry fellas next expac..we will all forget about this borrowed power 
everyone right now..
https://clips.twitch.tv/OutstandingPoliteDumplingsFrankerZ-24A6p16Buzj6OPs9
Im sending this to my rogue friends who are freaking out. Thanks Whispyr lol.
Let's just all be ninjas in Ff14 before it gets worse..lol
based clip
Me waiting for the sims wondering what class in FFXIV I should main 
Venthyr rogues on wayt to necro^
I have every job in 14 up to entry to SHB content. 😂 NIN is not rogue. Its Naruto.
Just sim your gear
tells me these are bis
There isnt an amount of a stat to aim for
i like samurai, but i feel like nothing in ff14 is near rogue
!sim
I main SAM atm. Im keeping my eye on Reaper tho..
ninja is fun
when can we panik
I main ninja dont enjoy Sam playstyle

The mudra mechanic is fun tho
we already panicked, but whispyr soothed us https://clips.twitch.tv/PiercingFaithfulDogeRlyTho-GvInWBq0WTY1Nqac
noOOO he shiv'd me NOOOOO
only have lvl 30 rogue in ff14 atm, ninja looks interesting
@visual sequoia wait.. u can literally unlock job at 30
NIN is fun. Recommend but its not rogue. So dont think its similar
ninja is fun, but it has a big learning curve
yea im a bit behind with job quests as rogue 😄
Take this to #wow-general Please, it's not 14.
lego got nerfed yay
Realistically, the obedience nerf seems really tame.
!guide
Huge 

i guess so lol
Wasn't the biggest part of the obedience lego that it makes it easier to sync the cd
Mastery still bad unlucky
Friendship with Obedience ended. Now Doomblade is my bestfriend (again)
mmhmm
am i doing it right if i wait till 9.2 and can play my nightfae rogue? seems possible they rebalance the covenants by then 😄 😄
Necro leather gear ugly asf tho
Night fae got 50% buff, tim 2 rol nf 


cuz everyone was crying about venthyr being op
i cannot wait for big crit
Were they?
@ebon notch bump that haste bro faster bleed ticks and better energy managemet
thats why im playing vigor
Dansgame
Necro hype train
🚂
Based on initial look, Obedience should be extremely close to Doomblade
Bone brothers yet again?
so should i just make doomblade? rofl
But Obedience will be better in AoE
y'all running around without doomblade? smh
@ebon notch big part of our damage comes from bleeds tho faster it ticks faster easy damage
push it!
deathspike is still dead, why even bother living 
Even better than zoldycks?
venthyr renown 48 leggo getting nerfed?
Mood
what % should i be aiming for then, 20?
yes
Playing venthyr sub m+ so making obedience anyhow
Is crit vers still the desired stats for our legendary?
whatever topgear tells you to equip
you should just sim yourself
don't chase secondaries
yeah thats why im at these stats lmao
God forbid a melee be in top 5 dps
crit/haste lan
@ebon notch just got ring from the nine in SoD.. haste went from 19 to 25%..can see the difference on my dps
has more to do with the increase in ilvl than just the increase in haste, more secondaries because of higher ilvl on ring = more dps
@azure bronze blizz dev's laughing at this right now..lol
@balmy condor changes are in. Keep in mind, this probably means we need to revisit some of the Obedience APL optimizations for both Sub and Assassination to determine if they are not negative now though.
i have the gear to push it up, didnt think i had to go above 20% tho
what deadly poison bug
!pb
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
damn that's shit
i thought it was 34% ? 
that's an insane dps loss
ooo nonono
you have to hit 40% crit and then your character unlocks scaling
42% all stats you get a nice cup of tea
good thing I got all day
Just get 100% in every stat
I'm still only 20% haste 25% crit feelsbadman
@ebon notch rings give stamina tho not primary stat so secondary stat on rings may be beneficial..test and sim
Tbh I hope obedience is still just bis, cba moving all these leggos to back piece
Use vigor to balance u out on low gear
Do wee need next nightly update to sims this with raidbot ?
Gonna have to make a back piece either way, don't see why it matters?
I’m fine making obedience once and using it for all 3 specs vs rerolling 5 leggos
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
!pb
for sure
fix or riot >.<
I was just happy I could play something else then doomblade 
so ye should i just go ahead and make doomblade? if so which stats
I mean the rerolling is not really an issue, the old currency is not really the limiting factor anymore
It's the new currency for R5/6 that is the factor
just wait till next week if you already have a shoulder doomblade
Haste/Crit
You can grind Soul Ash for the old stuff very quickly now
they might do more changes
No, but I’m limited by time. And farming +130 ash torghast is not fun
with the nerf, still worth dropping necrolord->venthyr with obedience?
I'm waiting for r6 week anyway to craft my legendary. Too expensive to craft r5 -> r6 right now
Venthyr is still going to be ahead
It depends on if you feel 2-3% is worth it or whatever it ends up being
at least it's not 5% anymore? hehe
If u multi spec sin/sub..venthyr best
outlaw/sin ?
but venth with doomblade is already like 3% ahead right?
outlaw/sin nec
Will ask him about a rebuild if Whispyr hasn't already
Outlaw shines with spike
kk, guess i'll stick with necro then, thanks guys
https://gyazo.com/7a5c8b907d17f1a39d6adda7f5ca4393 soo whens the scaling ?
apparently sudden fractures sims worse than maim, mangle
anyone else getting the same thing?
BUT.. Sub aoe got a nice buff and I've swapped from outlaw to sub to mess around and on larger packs is really nice. On small like 4 packs (think TOP) outlaw is better
Bro but u hurting yourself alot at 11% haste
Maim, Mangle interacts with Doomblade so it will eventually pull ahead for ST compared to Fractures
damn obedience nerf 😦
I play M+ that doesnt hurt me king
Fractures will always be better for AoE
i see
there's no "hurting yourself" with secodaries
you wear your best gear regardless of hte secondaries
Want to go sub for m+..dont enjoy outlaw
cool ty
M+ drop haste pump crit..but for single target more haste is nedded
!guide
So this week in our mess around keys 13-15s on keys like top I play m+ Sin build and its pretty fun. played it a bit last season. You being ok aoe, still good ST.
should I buy this gloves now or wait for the drop?
its 2k stygia, youre not gonna lose anything
Those are dogwater though.
Not realllly but Thanks for the concern I do have a 30% haste set for raiding 😛
If you've got nothing better, go ahead though.
i put doomblade on cloak right?
what rank do you need to be to buy those?
but I don't have dom shards atm
Sin m+ tab target hell tho
where do you get them lol
Raid.
i have dom gems but no slots to put them in
ah
ah I dont mind it personally I enjoy many spinning plates
Feel u tho flag>crimson tempest wrecks
It really gets my Jimmy’s going seeing all of the bleeds on all of the targets in a pull
lol
jimmy's sweet on elaine
why are so many people running EP/MA? I thought BS/MA is for ST ?
Feels good
it's only like a 50 dps loss or something just feels better to play
specially in the opener when you dont have to wait for energy to garrote...
before i make this a yes or no, doomblade on back?
yes
idk i just thought
If you're going Doomblade, it goes on back.
Kinda have too, gloves have dom socket
that having too much haste is bad
Me seeing the nerfs today to Obidence.
@azure bronze would you mind to explain why it smoothes the rotation? EP is just a damage buff?
Having too much haste leads into giga fun with exsang 
I'm dropping Necro & going back to Venthyr now I think.
going against traffic, smart
Boots
ty

If crit too low tho..getting 6 points will take too long
Its actually back please dont do boots lol
Oh so you are playing with vigor then aswell?
heyo. i've been watching mad men
?????
how bout the fuck we dont
PARDON
Yeah that's a ban hammer
Real mf..dont obey..like garrosh
Lmao
early sim time, more to come
pog
Depression on hold.
EVERYBODY PANIC
Tbh, Obedience is pretty nice just for the qol of the cd imo.
noooo obedience died
Alright I'm not longer waiting to craft my raid lego ig I'll just craft again next week
What do you know, looks very similar to the last sims.
where can i find what i can CoS in new raid?
back to necro? 
Oh right, obedience isn’t #1 so it’s dead
So Venthyr is still the play even if Obedience is worse ?
Lost about 400~ dps. Which isnt the worst thing in the world.
4% pretty large
Yes, but its from the top end and its still top. So it just puts it in line.
You guys that reroll covenants at the drop of a hat amuse me
Always has been. At least in terms of max ST damage.
That's that WAGON.

Yea, but that's pure ST, Necro gains a little with any adds or cleave. I'm guessing both covs will be viable now, which is great!
Haha. Yeah. I'm the opposite. I look for a reason not to swap.
Great ty for the confirmation
I love SBS...but hate everything else about necrolords. I love everything about Venthyr but dont realy care much for Flag :(.
If only we got to pick an ability and then a cov. 
Play what u enjoy.. these sims r like for 5% of players who play perfectly
Yeah, ain't nobody got time for that nonsense. I get triggered when my entire adventure table and all my cov progress resets
@tidal gorge 
really just wanted a legendary that did something
obedience also assumes send it on cd which depending on fights where u might want to hold for hard phase/lust it loses value now that doomblade is that close seems like doomie nice
Real talk though, obedience damage is spikier while doomblade is more consistent. So both would have their place even if the sims were identical
Wish that with covenant assaults we could borrow their powers during assault to test or fck around
That’s what leveling is for
@limber lion so r we boner boys again, lead me cf
But we can get a feel for buffs and reworks without having to switch completely
¯_(ツ)_/¯
so we stay vent with doomblade ?
the best thing is you can craft doom and obedience and swap them!
since theyre both back pieces
not quite the most accurate take broski
If u dont play class right these numbers dont even matter
it seems I was mistaken about my stat spread. It is 22% crit, 20% haste, 33% mastery, and 9% vers for those that read my previous numbers
im personally staying venth i havent seen any fight worth being necro for tbh
what kind of argument is this? what
Kek
yeah lan, mastery is suxxor
Bro no one arguing..just ppl stressing way to much in this
i mean its a big deal and it matters
good that it happened now before people could craft it
so they can make a better choice off of the actual numbers
for sure. I'm tryin to move away from mastery, but all my gear so far has had some form of mastery
and im 221 so I cant afford to be picky
Fuckin rip
Hello Guys! DoTing Spiked Ball Painsmith Raznal vs. playing safe. What you think?
not worth hitting ball full send boss
fan into boss
You can dps it, it's pretty slow.. but if your comp is ranged heavy, let them deal with it tbh
oh shit, why didn't I think of that
We didn't kill him last nite but I was fan/envenoming the critical balls (on the overlaps where it needs to die immediately for traps to get thru). Probably not optimal but ¯_(ツ)_/¯
You can throw bleeds on a ball, but do note that padding on balls is not worth. It will not show up on logs.
its good to have the option if its dire just swappie
Just killed remnant last nite..havent even tried yet..nice to know I'll getfck if I try to melle it
actually I was able to melee it, just gotta space really well
so what we doin now
chillin
vibing
staying venthyr 
Blizz support..complain bout nerf
Waiting with anxiety for dgslice sims
Necro 4 Life.
Outlaw Obedie bois wya 
im necro... i really dont wanna switch to venth
Venthyr 4 all eternity
The 80 renown title for Venth is Sin Eater. There is no other covenant for me 😛
shall we swap back necro and then potentially swap back venthyr and then maybe also swap back necro all in preparation for a leggo that doesn’t exist yet?!
schrodinger's covenant
He's speaking the language of the gods
lmao

no one padding on painsmith balls smh
just maybe not swap till we actually see real numbers?
necro is cring..
Speak for yourself
Gotta get DoTs on every single one of them
let that CT shine
u gotta dot up as soon as they drop for full damage
CT kings on painsmith 
You cannot get hit by the balls if you kill all the balls 
"For Spiked Balls, only damage done to the first killed ball in each set is included in the table below. You may switch to the Damage Taken by Enemies view to see damage to all balls if needed. " WCL disagrees
You’re taking this far too seriously 
I'm sorry
no fun allowed
All good 
Why y’all killing balls
Hell yeah brother
whats best spec/cov for raid now
I've hit my quota of getting hit in the face with balls for 2021
We don’t kill balls we unethically pad 
because ranged dps are too busy doing whatever it is they're doing
Even though it literally doesn’t show in logs 
i got chained 2 times in 1 pull and afkd for half the pull
LMFAO
melee didn't make room for you? 
nah scum
poisoned knife mvp
Imagine not opening the pit for Luna the fragger
I'm just saying there are ways to MAKE them give you room
you know, if you're a gamer
ty filtering
Absolute apes 
Just have WCL filter to give me better logs, I'm on board 😄
unethical boomkins
TRUE
Wouldn’t trust a boomkin with a dollar let alone a raidspot 
for painsmith, i shadowstepped the first set of balls and survived but for the second set i did the same thing and died?
Only ethical Rogue boss damage is allowed

Funnel only 
shadowstep is illegal
do i need to be walking backwards whilst shadowstepping or soemthing?
no it puts you exactly on the middle of their hitbox which is in the death zone
so it procced your cheat death

i forgot to put it on
Ahhh
so i have leech
well then you got lucky somehow
I thought you meant in general, yeah it should hit you every time
Pixel perfect shadow step
ok then
meanwhile demon hunters can double jump glide over them 
Their personal?
tehir personal one
oh no i mean the portals
!guide
should work. you're not trarvelling
If it doesn't work on balls, why is it working for the boss with the beam?
scientists are still working to explain that
the gate doesn't work
I'm guessing it's something dumb like it depends on which direction they are going
For the balls
Generally I use Shadowstep to be lazy and go through the spikes after the tank moves the boss 🤣
you can NF blink or venthyr door past the balls but that's about it unless you're shadowstepping someone already across
I might do the same koji
i will be doing that from now on
I’m an ape though
you have an assassination tag we already knew that
i wonder if you can evasion the spikes
Does that buff to toxic onslaught change anything for it or is it still a trash lego
?
It's still very bad
thought so
Yo sorry @balmy condor guildy told me your sims are horrible and that I cannot base what legendary or cov I should use off them, so I am going to go night fae and use toxic onslaught 🙂 The other people who play this game make me not want to play this game
shame but at least venthyr bois got at least a bit dragged down
did something happen , my same sim from yesterday shows 200 dps less today
HUH?
so dhs can double jump over?
what caused the new sim to lessen the gap between heirmir and swapping venthyr with the new leggo?
lego tuning
just got nerfed
understandable
So totally viable to stay necro now?
More or less
It always be viable lol
having ranged with the cov ability when moving for mechanics is nice
been*
Don't know about mythic but Heroic Sanctum is mainly ST, if you are planning on only raiding with m+ on the side, venth should be on top.
previous sims are still in there somewhere
Why NF legendary not in the pinned sims?
He has new sims pinned
There y’all got what you wanted
got 3 equally bad leggos now to choose from instead of one good one
balanced so fucking hard mate
Lololol
Personally still like the look of Obedience since it gives the option of playing Sub/Outlaw
Yo with ma talent what’s the ideal necro opener I always start real shit
Doomblade requires 100% uptime to sim equal, whereas you get benefit from obedience on fights like painsmith. Not every fight is patchwerk

Or do we just have no burst
obedience also has more value on more than 1 target 
this an outlaw tier forsure baby
if its close enough just slam law
don't be so sure
cant lose
Im not optimized at all still good as nf with zoldy leggo....so im happy with assassin as whole right now
more mutilate energy brother
Totally not
thats true…
huh?
but then i have no good lege for m+….
Doomblade doesn't require uptime at all?
it's a balanced tier though you have 3 equally bad legendaries and 3 bad covenants
pog
meaningful choice activated
A 235 is almost heroic and that’s like 2 weeks of torghast just have a celerity ring for m+
Doomblade is just extra damage on your Mutilates, the DoT uptime is not relevant
nothing matters 
Doomblade and Obedience are still like on the top quarter or even fifth of legendaries after this... Stop acting like the couple massively overtuned ones are the norm. lol
tl;dr we still good. at least we're not hunters.
Doomblade requires you to constantly hit the boss, if you compare obedience vs. doomblade on a fight like painsmith where you have 2 long intermissions, that downtime goes right into buffing your damage on your next cooldowns


Well
@fleet anchor welcome to spec channels

Still being venthyr then

just adding intense memes to the channel to lighten the mood
appreciate everyones work in getting the sims updated and out
❤️
My point is that the damage graph with obedience is going to be big spikes, doomblade is more consistent across the whole fight. You can't compare them apples to apples 🙄
but now its the worst rogue spec 😢 lol
you can though in terms of uptime right?
And yet I GUARANTEE it’ll see the most progression
I mean he's not entirely wrong, but it's not for the right reason
likely so
And hey guess what? We’re still strong even with doomblade
It's not about doomblade uptime, it's just that the intermission essentially cuts your CDs and lines them up better
doomblade again 
whats doomblade im still obedience simp
no new toy 
Yeah I mean Obedience still seems better to me
There's very little pure ST, and it's like a 50 DPS gain
most of the fights have transition phases which is why you see a lot of rogues not running blindside
doomblade is for a fight more like guardian
^
did they nerfed venthyr legy?
by half i think
What's wrong with blindside and transitions?
what does intermission phase have to do with blindside tho
people have to realize that sims are like 100% uptime patchwerk
I mean sylvanas makes sense because she doesn't go to execute
But if there’s very little pure ST then why you venth lol
and in 3 weeks when you're all a little more geared and used to the fight, that intermission will be 30 seconds earlier
and it all changes again
Any adds make necro stronger
yeah but why does sin need add dam bro just send st 
^
why would they do this when ppl have made covenant decisions over the past month based on prior info, then 5 days before these legos are accessible they change them...
like they had all of ptr to do this instead
you want add damage the answer is outlaw/sub
such a pepega ass company
better than 5 days after probably
either way ppl swapped because of the info that was available for 3 months
without a change
ya sin is better for like 2-3 target and the raid doesnt really have a lot of that besides the 9 and if ur basing your gear off of the first 2 bosses ur trolling ur raid
Lol 50% buff for NF legendary and is still unspeakably terrible
Also have been speculating a nerf and feared it the last few weeks. Why be surprised?
@balmy condor thanks for doing all the heavy lifting to keep us informed
NF lego needs a complete overhaul, not an uptime buff sadly
im personally going obedience simply for access to sub since it seems to be chad st
tetsing
Vers was nerfed. Having the CDR carries the lego IMO
itll be good for the burst aoe too
I mean atleast no spec is like miles ahead any more
Agreed
Agreed
I mean if it makes CDs line up better
Bone bros on menu with new pins it’s huge 
Obedience is definitely an upgrade on painsmith
to be clear im totally ok with it being nerfed
its just the timing
and how they chose to do it
Since it means you will get 2 Flag before intermission and have it up after intermission
yo guys, guildies just told me about legendary changes. F obedience?
ya u should get flag to line w ur vendettas now which is nice
It's whatever.
nah its still good @grim hornet

i think obedience will grant like %15 versa now before nerf it was possible to get %30
just not broken good
Tbh we appreciate you, I know it’s a headache
difference between Necro Heimnir and Venthyr sim isnt too crazy anymore damn
and ofc thanks to @balmy condor
hard to get 15% on sin but yes
deep breaths homie
are the nerfs in Nightly? 
people just need deep breaths
I think I'm going to upgrade my Doomblade to rank 6 and then put Obedience on a rank 4 when it comes out in case it's better on a fight by fight basis, I think this will be the best management of my soul cinders
should i make doomblade instead of obedience then?
Sure if you want.
i still think they went slightly overboard going from 1%-->0.5% imo .75 wouldve been fair
I would still make obedience because it will let you run outlaw for M+ and Sub for fights where it's better since Sub is ahead of Sin right now on sims
I’m good, i crafted a cloak finality any way— so I’m good on what ever I end up going. 235/235 both doom and finality. Al li know is I’m not going outlaw
or .65 even
That was basically what I was trying to say before, I just said it badly. If obedience optimized your cooldowns so that you're not sitting around waiting for the boss to come back to use cooldowns, that would be a large difference vs. doomblade which has to be hitting the boss to see benefit. I.e. you don't lose any value from the legendary for the fight
Doomblade is probably better than Obedience on like 2 or 3 fights in raid
by barely anything
doomblade kinda feels punished dmg if you dont have atleast 1 bleed on target
i mean for cleave

How does that work?
Bought a 230 crafted neck and got some stuff from Tazavesh, up to 222 now

I agree w @tidal gorge if u have any downtime or if you are not constantly throwing out envemons (i.e. multi dotting instead) then obedience gap grows from doomblade by large margin
and i believe now doomblade for go to necro lego if we are vs with obedience
No, it's not the best.
What quest neck?
seem neco lord owned in the sicms right now
I did the quest for the dungeon, didn't see a neck
It's given for completing hardmode quest line
