Zold is awful in ST

crystal vault
#

@spice spire i am venthyr.

odd hazel
#

I should specify

spice spire
#

In 8.3, the opener would be garrote rupture garrote with subt because garrote did 26282@2927::))3 damage

spice spire
odd hazel
#

Necro uses doom for ST

spice spire
#

Oh, ST Zoldyck’s bad. Zoldyck’s great for M+. But if venthyr just craft obedience Tuesday ❤️

odd hazel
#

Tags you but I responded

spice spire
#

Horde diff krey

lone junco
#

Just seems weird to not use the 3rd global. Maybe extending garrote isn't worth much anymore.

spice spire
#

It is not

pale heart
#

it's not, because we do not get 3 cp from it anymore

spice spire
#

It only was due to shrouded suffocation. Now it’s just a bleed to maintain

#

But for ST you’d still want to do MA > subterfuge

lone junco
#

👍

odd hazel
spice spire
#

But in m+ subterfuge still very good 🙂

lone junco
#

It's fine. Just trying to keep up. It's been a while.

spice spire
odd hazel
#

Yeah we are more then happy to help

#

Just let our fearless leader whispyr sleep SansFingerGuns

As venthyr Do i Muti-Snd-muti-Garrote-vendetta-flag-rupture-Shiv-vanish> muti to envenoms?

odd hazel
#

Yes

sand aurora
#

so is it worth it to craft obe now or do i just stick to upgrading Doomblade

jaunty haven
#

hola new comer here, what legendary should i craft for raid got confused because guides say insignia or obedience but in logs everyone plays doomblade

sand aurora
#

ye ik

#

for later i mean

#

do i ditch obe

odd hazel
odd hazel
#

Not sure why it even mentions signia

jaunty haven
#

Seliathan put it as number 1 for raids in 9.1 i haven't played rogue in a good while but seli used to be on point

odd hazel
#

Who?

jaunty haven
#

the dude who writes icy veins for rogues

odd hazel
#

Oh

#

Yeah don’t use that

#

The leggo

jaunty haven
#

yea i guess i will craft doomblade for now, im venthyr tho but got lots of work anyway till i swap my dk in mythic roster

odd hazel
#

Yeah that’s fine, I wouldn’t craft it to high and make sure it’s a cape

#

Craft obedience ASAP

jaunty haven
#

gotcha thanks ma dude

odd hazel
#

No problem ❤️ we are happy to help coolpanda

mental trout
#

Damn what spec y’all do torgy as? Just ran it was outlaw and I feel like the anima powers are trash. Assassinations aren’t to bad, wonder about subs?

odd hazel
#

They are all the same

#

What iLvl are you?

mental trout
#

Like 225

#

Was running with a dh who was doing 50k dps lol

azure bronze
#

Rogue powers in torghast are just bad vs some other classes

compact sinew
#

Boys is Relic of the frozen wastes a sim trap? Seems garbage from when I've used it

nimble tartan
#

how do i get 5 star solo monkascheme

#

i tried last night and got 3 ..

compact sinew
#

play sub ^^

burnt star
#

Necro on any rogue spec can be really op. Theres a power that your sbs does insane damage when shot from 60 yard. + master assasin ring equip

#

I was 3 shotting boss on layer 8.

nimble tartan
#

only time i get 5 star is in a torgh party wit tha boys

odd hazel
#

Should just run with a party for 5

burnt star
#

YEP

#

Theres also a power that u regain 3 stack when target dies instead of one

#

And u have 5 total

#

Those 2 makes u a sniper

oblique coyote
#

hey, guys.
dashing scoundrel is better than doomblade? 🤔

odd hazel
#

No

#

i saw this on bloodmallet 🤔

!guide

worldly condor
#

if i have the soul ash to craft my 235 doomblade cloak now should i go ahead and craft it? or is there a good reason for waiting till I get socketed gloves?

odd hazel
#

You don’t craft gloves

#

Craft cloak

#

If you’re necro craft doom on cloak

balmy condor
#

not really "better"

odd hazel
#

If venth craft obed on cloak

#

Heyo whispyr SansFingerGuns

balmy condor
#

hi

sleek sundial
#

Hey guys, trying to figure out the opner in a raid boss.. lets say I'm rolling Master Assassin, and doom blade, whats the opner?

deft wagon
#

So if ur venthyr it seems like obedience is just best overall right?

sleek sundial
#

full single target fight and talents

worldly condor
odd hazel
#

Mut - SnD - Mut - garrote - vendetta - flag - rupture——

odd hazel
balmy condor
#

yeh it's good enough I guess

#

too lazy to answer guide questions

odd hazel
#

Surprised there’s no commands at this point lol

balmy condor
#

the command is !guide

#

he just came back to ask a question anyway

odd hazel
#

I meant just for opener

#

Since we get it so much

sour wraith
#

Openers are in the guides though so why need another command

odd hazel
#

For how frequent they are asked here

frosty wind
#

Oh, doomblade is slightly better than obedience? I guess i can finish upgrading it

sleek sundial
odd hazel
#

In pure ST yes

#

You should upgrade obedience and just use that

#

Doom is only better in ST by like 40

frosty wind
#

Ok, the wait continues

tiny ember
#

when you sim 400 more on Assa then on sub for ST....so you got to play it bois...

odd hazel
#

Play sub if you want to

tiny ember
#

maybe next week

#

honestly my hands could use a break the opener for assa...

odd hazel
#

Is easy

tiny ember
#

off feels like I'm walking and sub feels like I'm I odn't know

#

is it still

odd hazel
#

Yes?

#

It hasn’t changed

tiny ember
#

Mutilate
slice and Dice
Mutilate
Garrot
Flagellation
Rupture
Potion
Venedeta
Shiv
Vanish
Mutiltate
Envom

#

it's still this right?

odd hazel
#

Vendetta before flag

balmy condor
tiny ember
#

does it benefit?

balmy condor
#

more people overthinking openers

odd hazel
#

Yes

tiny ember
#

who had a dream of sub and then zull hapend

vestal wren
#

small diffrences in opener usually don't change your output

#

i don't think people overthing it

#

but rather use it as a template

tiny ember
#

but am i troling

#

with the one i wrote above

balmy condor
#

not really

#

no

#

that's all pretty standard

tiny ember
#

as long as it does enough dmg to beat the other rogue

#

I'm happy

opaque sigil
#

Guys, quick question: do we keep CT only if there are 2+ targets or also for ST?

#

DoT of course

vestal wren
#

its probably the reason you see opener question asked this much.
its a set sequence you can just learn by hard

tiny ember
#

I mean the opener is a preset I don't have to think about shit

balmy condor
tiny ember
#

on outlaw the opener was stealth-roll-ambush-prio

opaque sigil
#

thanks @balmy condor, always here for dumb questions like that ❤️

prisma monolithBOT
#

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.

balmy condor
tiny ember
#

I mean have it pined

tiny ember
#

i looked at the pins like crazy

#

XD

balmy condor
#

they are

#

it's called guides

tiny ember
#

nah bro

magic gale
#

yo whispyr can you help me out with the assa opener ?

tiny ember
#

come on man

#

we simmed on stream together

magic gale
tiny ember
#

you simmed I got errors

vestal wren
tiny ember
#

you got big numbers i got wrong input

tiny ember
#

not really played

#

you know so quick opener the priority on guides

#

looks the same

vestal wren
#

i just talk very generalized ^^

tiny ember
#

fair enough

vestal wren
#

sin is suprisingly low in gameplay change outside of covenant specific stuff

tiny ember
#

that it is

#

which is nice and bad at the same time

vestal wren
#

i think thats great bc. this means you can come back to it and pick it up quick

tiny ember
#

I guess that's a positive but it gets stale does it not?

vestal wren
#

but it also means that it didn't change a lot when it could have evolved over time

tiny ember
#

i don't thinkany of the rogue thing changed that much

#

outlaw feels the same outside of SBS

#

sub was dead i guess now it's alive XD

#

so that's fun

vestal wren
#

subtlety did change a lot in the last 2 xpacs

#

outlaw only to a certain degree.
its base rotation is still rather simple and complexity comes mainly from rtb buffs

tiny ember
#

I mean it's a prio rotation

#

jugling the broadside buff right now

#

with keepign everything on cd

granite bluff
#

Anyone got a cheat sheet for sims? i cant seem to find it

vestal wren
#

rerolling is a lot less of a thing now ^^

tiny ember
#

the rule if it can be on cd it should be on cd and just send it

granite bluff
#

wanna know if venth might not be the move after the lego nerf

tiny ember
#

I think the conduit thing made it sooo mcuh better as a class

vestal wren
#

!fuu

prisma monolithBOT
tiny ember
#

if they drop like 2 of the trash buffs it would bee such a nice spec

tiny ember
#

and maybe a cd that gives you all bufs would be big

vestal wren
#

not sure what you search throne tho

#

i can give you my cheat document with ids of conduits/soulbinds/etc too

#

but thats probably outside of the scope of regular raidbots sim use ^^

granite bluff
#

oh no i was just looking if venthyr might be better for me. Since i do high rated arena and raid

#

but i might try it out

vestal wren
#

you can just put yourself into top gear and add the covenant too

granite bluff
#

you mean on Raidbots?

vestal wren
#

yes

granite bluff
#

oh ill try that out

#

thx

snow plinth
#

how do you handle aoe in M+, do you kinda accept that youre mostly a single target spec and just beat on the priority/fattest mob, spreading ruptures(and crimson tempest if talented) when able? or do you try to aoe as much as possible?

vestal wren
snow plinth
#

Venemous Wounds not applying to Crimson Tempest makes aoe feel so weird imo

vestal wren
#

i think the concept of ct benefiting from vw looks great

cloud reef
#

is obedience> doomblade on 2 target cleave

vestal wren
#

should be close on 2 targets

subtle tundra
snow plinth
#

im just newish to rogue and brand new to assass (only really played sub previously) so idrk how to aoe

vestal wren
fallen ginkgo
#

!guide

vestal wren
#

reducing ramp up time significantly

frigid kestrel
snow plinth
#

also wowhead says (for both sub and assass actually) that Nadjia for raid and Theotar for M+, whats the reasoning for that, cuz i may be missing it but i dont seei t explained

vestal wren
snow plinth
#

do you drop envenom in aoe then?

vestal wren
#

no

#

but you apply rupture to more than one target usually

teal bloom
#

Envenom just enough to keep SnD up

vestal wren
#

sin is a spec about maintainance

frigid kestrel
vestal wren
#

so you keep your ruptures running, your garrotes up, your ct up, keep your poisons up for vw

frigid kestrel
#

For Venth you just slam flag on a rando while working up CP as fast as you can maintaing shiv and spreading ruptures

thorny pond
#

Prob best to get flag going after a few bleeds are out and max cp

runic basin
#

is it me or sin feels shitty to play? i play sub and sin as vent. with 23% haste (751) and it feels like very slow..often out of engery

spiral warren
#

Are you supposed to reapply rupture or garrotte in ST during shiv? Or do I just wait to reapply the bleeds before doing shiv?

trail shoal
#

If I plan on staying Necrolord.. Would Doomblade be my best option for lego in a single target raid situation?

tardy knoll
#

wait? people still go with obedience evne after the nerf?

snow plinth
#

the sim in the pins shows obedience only like 60dps or something behind doomblade i think

vestal wren
#

dashing is a underused alternative on st

teal bloom
#

@runic basin assa is slow a spec regardless of stats outside multi target situations, not every one likes that

vestal wren
#

(but doom is quite good, so no reason to consider it)

snow plinth
#

also Between Nadjia and Theotar, if i wanna play both sub and assa, which soulbind should i use for which spec, since im cucked by conduit energy and cant just swap zzzzzz

vestal wren
#

nadja is for both specs with current renown stand better

runic basin
vestal wren
#

once we get the 50+ traits unlocked (party favors on theo), theo becomes better on sub

#

(party favors is 54 renown for reference)

snow plinth
#

oh

#

so ig run theo for sub and nadjia for assa

vestal wren
#

for who loses the least, lets have a look

#

48 renown (so mythic week levels):

#

seems like nadja for sin and theo for sub is the best option

wintry kayak
#

How many Flag stacks do you get? it's hard to get past 20

odd hazel
#

Highest I’ve got is like 28

#

I average 20-23

vestal wren
#

sin doesen't get to 30

#

so thats normal

final sky
#

do I use spectral agility or phantom fire in raid?

vestal wren
#

#subtlety is the spec that can get high stacks consistently.
(shamless subtlety promotion :P)

odd hazel
#

!oil

prisma monolithBOT
#

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

Can someone suggest a good way to sim Sin Talents for AoE/M+? I am familiar with RaidBots, just curious if it is as simple as changing from Patchwerk to something else... or more complex. Thank you!

odd hazel
#

With M+ set up

#

EP/Sub/vigor/crimson

compact oyster
#

No DS in M+?

odd hazel
#

Nope!

#

fuu can i use the same gear on sub as sin ?

odd hazel
#

I would listen to fuu though

#

Simming as many set ups is the best way to go about it for your chat

#

@compact oyster

modern heart
#

simself but like.. i dont have any sub "gear"

#

or do I ? think

vestal wren
modern heart
#

okay ill just try sub when i get double sylv daggers

jaunty kayak
#

if i plan to use doomblade also for pvp, should i craft it with haste vers? or still haste crit

modern heart
#

with the gear i have

vestal wren
#

but just sim it, top gear makes it fairly simple ^^

modern heart
#

ye true

vestal wren
modern heart
#

ye we're gonna kill painsmith tonight, bosses after that should be fine. we blasted normal in 1 night

teal mountain
#

guys if I dont want to respe, I put haste + crit on my obedience or I keep crit + versa on it ?

vestal wren
#

i was kinda joking bc. sylvanas is rly brutal on hc right now

#

seems overtuned for a hc encounter

modern heart
#

D;

buoyant kraken
#

Overall for the entire raid, would you recommend venthyr or necro for assa?

modern heart
#

a non main raider got the sylvana bow btw, that was fun

odd hazel
#

Venth personally

vestal wren
fervent path
#

!guide

odd hazel
#

Stinky bone boi

vestal wren
#

venthyr is fine even if you don't plan to play sub

#

its mainly that necro is not rly good on sub

fervent path
#

Mmm venth is a weird one rn thought

odd hazel
#

Why

fervent path
#

Cause if you raid nadjia is best for outlaw and assass

#

So you have to deal with the shit conduit power system

odd hazel
#

I mean

#

You wouldn’t play outlaw as a sin venth

#

You would play sub/sin with venth

fervent path
#

Granted but fuu said venth is fine even if you dont play sub

#

But if you play outlaw atm its annoying

odd hazel
#

Yes venth is more then fine

fervent path
#

With the conduit sytem

#

System*

dusky karma
#

Theotar is showing up as good / slightly ahead of nadjia for sub

vestal wren
dusky karma
#

you can run Nad for sin, and Theo or sub and not have to worry about "meaningful choices"

fervent path
#

Oh yeah for sub/sin venth is juicy cause of two different soulbinds

#

I just ment outlaw atm this week sims Nadjia which is just a pain

vestal wren
#

you probably want to bring outlaw to non st fights

#

so you could just nadja sin and <better one of the other 2 for dungeon slice> outlaw

modern heart
#

time to set up my sub conduits for m+ then 👀

vestal wren
#

so i think there are good compromises for both combinations (sin/sub), (sin/outlaw) with venthyr

deft wagon
vestal wren
#

interesting

dusky karma
#

only bosses that aren't ST are like KT and Sylv, unless mythic crams a ton of adds in (I'm not counting 3 add waves in soulrender, or fatescribe, those are better handled by specs that can burst them down rather than pad cuz "muh parse")

vestal wren
deft wagon
#

Yeah i get that, just seems weird that outlaw would outperform assass on ST

odd hazel
#

With high rng comes great power

inner chasm
#

@vestal wren what covenant is your rogue with?

wraith fulcrum
#

229 phial my first plaguefall run this season

dusky karma
#

sims don't tell the whole story, by the time we have the whole renown system unlocked, fight timings are going to shorten, and instead of being a 7 minute patchwork (i'm just guessing here) most fights are going to be closer to 5 minutes or probably less and start transitioning to burst strategy's... fury warrior for example isn't going to get to make use of extended execute windows by the time their whole tree is maxxed out

odd hazel

Grats!

# normal olive the what

Some idiot macro’d a toy called bubble wand into mutilate or something, and he was wondering why his damage was so low, dude was fucking channeling bubble wand for like half the fight and because of that just didn’t auto for almost 3 minutes

anyone know the vendor where you can remove the shards from your item?

balmy condor
#

tardy knoll
#

thanks

odd hazel
#

The item you buy is permanent

#

You don’t have to buy multiple

cerulean nest
#

is that multiple-ranks-of-same-shard exploit still a thing?

balmy condor
#

no

cerulean nest
#

good

#

ive gotten one dom socket + unholy shard so far

#

doesnt feel like....crazy noticeable?

balmy condor
#

yep

limber lion
#

It's not super noticeable

odd hazel
#

How much dps would you say each shard is

limber lion
#

Even the full unholy effect isn't really a very giga thing.

cerulean nest
#

this rank 4 shard gave me lik 100dps increase in sims

limber lion
cerulean nest
#

226 helm -> 239 plus shard

limber lion
#

200 absorb doesn't really increase your damage

cerulean nest
#

it was the Dyz shard btw

#

which is like one of the best

#

sorta meh

limber lion
#

And Shard of Dyz (0.75% extra damage throughout the entire encounter) is quite a bit better than the thing that gives you 1.5% damage for 20s at the start.

#

Yeh

#

I mean it's 0.75%

#

It's not massive.

cerulean nest
#

I mean whatever. i guess its nice for not every single upgrade to like giga change the playstyle

#

are there sims of like a 239 dom piece (or even full unholy set) versus 252 versions of those pieces?

patent topaz
#

shard of dyz nuts

cerulean nest
frosty gyro
#

Just wait until you get the shard that gives a life leech aura on buffing

#

Guess what counts as buffing? Stealth, mounting, sprint, tricks, etc

balmy condor
frosty gyro
#

And it procs out of combat + unstealths you if it hits enemies

just how it is

Also if he doesn’t know the opener, then how does he know he hasn’t seen a correct opener in a guide 🧐

balmy condor
#

different guy

misty edge
#

Yea I’m talking about the other one not Kanye for that comment

frosty gyro
#

Yeah I know the opener lol, I just hadn't seen in in a guide

#

In that guide that's in a separate section down at the bottom

balmy condor
#

its in a separate section on icyveins too

frosty gyro
#

I hadn't seen it because I would assume they would put the opener in the "Pull" section talking about what to do on pull

odd hazel
#

See

#

Opener command lol

cerulean nest
#

it's a yes

frosty gyro
#

???

balmy condor
frosty gyro
#

I mean if you read the area where you would expect the opener to be and it isn't there, why would you keep looking through info you don't care about to see if it's mentioned somewhere else?

#

The Pull section does mention how to open, just not in a useful way

Damn the titanic ocular gland with the secret technique trinket from H taza is a great combo. A free 219 haste and 22 haste to a party member. If I use the secret tech trinket first and get the haste and then put on the titanic ocular my haste is higher then vers so I get the haste stat buff. So dope

hey does anyone know why so many of the top logs are necro in raid?

wintry mica

because necro is still good

yea its just weird to see like 60% of the top logs be necro

fair enough ig

Because people prefer necro

Is it worth to use a <4 CP envenom if its right at the end of flag?

personally i would if i didn't reach the 30 stacks for flag but that's just what I would do and who knows if thats right or not.

odd hazel
#

We don’t reach 30 stacks

#

That’s sub my friend

slim siren
#

yea we hover around 25 26 usually tbh

Would it still be worth to use a 3cp envenom if you see flag will drop next gcd instead of using another muti for a full cp envenom but missing the stacks?

No

Does Obedience change our stat priority at all for raiding? I want to make sure I shouldn't be doing haste/vers instead of haste/crit when I craft it next week.

grand echo
#

If you wanna try out sub too crit/vers is also good.

#

Secondaries of legendary aren't that important, imo as long as you go crit haste or vers your safe.

harsh hollow
#

can you shadowstep safely to the spikes on painsmith so you end behind them?

grand echo
#

Yes if your target is behind and they are not coming up

#

Just killed him @hc

grand echo
#

But you should learn how to just walk through them when they are fully up

#

It's safe when you get the timing

#

I was also using zoldyck legendary for painsmith our team needed heavy execute dmg in p3 otherwise it was just about staying alive

odd hazel

My team absolutely sucked at pain

Right now I haveing a debate from one guildies.. what do u guys Oil or stones.. Stones in raids and or Stones in m+ or other way around ?

!Oil

prisma monolithBOT

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

Yo guys . With new obedience legendary do you reduce its cooldown for 24 seconds or 12 first seconds does anyone know?

limber lion
keen mantle
#

okay thanks

limber lion

So all the combo points generated during the first 12s reduces the cooldown of Flag.

#

The Vers stays for 24s though

If only we got the cool down for 24seconds

Good evening ya all! So I have seen some conflicting information so would love to hear input from you all here! When it comes to flagellation and vendetta should I just be using each on cooldown or should I delay either if there is a certain lineup window? I come over from playing UH DK where there are CDS you hold if they are within a certain window of other abilities thanks so much in advance!

fallen arch
#

It would be a possibility, but normally it would be no

limber lion

Any downside I haven't though of for spending all of my embers on rushing upgrade on a shard of dyz?

Since we can move it between gear and iirc it's the strongest individual shard

#

@solid venture a fellow 99 nine parser ez

granite jackal
#

Thanks so much @limber lion appreciate the input! That's what I was thinking just wanted to confirm!

gloomy rose
#

do we have a way to trigger the shard of zed? (helpful spells and abilities)

granite jackal
#

Gonna pick everyone's brain one more time. What is your all's general setup when you see vendetta getting ready to come off cooldown? I have read the guides multiple times it just doesn't have the same effect as hearing it from seasoned rogue players that know the class. I know optimizing our vendetta windows are super important and I want to try and get it stamped into my brain before raid next week!

slow marsh
#

generally its better to use on cd vs holding

#

but knowing when mechanics are in fight helps

That's it

the sims are that different

It's everything

but the stats

ye but for the sims

Im not comparing my preformance comparing our sims

and in sims it cant be much else but gear

#

Hi gents, what are some major factors I should look at when investigating my logs? New to playing sin - thanks

limber lion
#

gear

#

not stats

#

stats don't mean shit

#

link your sim

limber lion
#
  1. Bad weapons
  2. You don't use IQD
  3. WPS is 10 ilvl lower
  4. Don't have Sylvanas Dagger
  5. Bad talents
#

Secondaries

violet hemlock
#

IQD simeed worse last I tried

#

have a 220

limber lion
#

You need to have crit as your highest stat

#

that's it

#

you just put crit on everything until it's your highest stat

violet hemlock
#

ye rn its haste

limber lion
#

There's no magic breakpoints or anything

violet hemlock
#

kk gotcha

solid venture
#

is IQD really that good?

violet hemlock
#

do u mean just not 233

Yo wanna know. Should I always hold Flag for Vendetta or can I also use it out of vendetta? since its 1:30 flag to 2min Vendetta. Saw some logs with using Flag outside of vendetta so not really sure

so its not as good for necrolords?

limber lion

Nah

solid venture
#

fair enough

#

It's only great for Venthyr for providing so much crit for your Flag windows.

#

It's still a good choice for Necro as well, but there are better choices out there

halcyon blade
limber lion
solid venture
#

yea just praying for a phial from vault next week prayge

shut garnet
#

do u ever hold flag for vendetta

limber lion
#

If you don't lose a cast.

whole mason
limber lion
#

But it's usually better to just slam it.

#

It's always better to sync stuff as long as you don't miss casts

#

Missing casts is a bigger loss than syncing is a gain

whole mason
limber lion
#

Stop doing that then.,

hollow river
#

So iqd > totem for Venthyr assa?

#

In most cases*

limber lion
hollow river
#

Kk didn’t know

#

I knew for last season,

limber lion
#

Nothing's changed?

#

Literally nothing has changed for our spec

#

since 9.0.5

hollow river
#

I thought iqd nerfed

limber lion
#

They did stealth-nerf it but they buffed it again

hollow river
#

Oo

limber lion
#

It was never actually introduced

grim hornet
#

How Do u line iqd then? First and third vendetta I guess?

#

Or every other flag I guess

limber lion
#

Just pretty much use it on cooldown. You can sync it - again - as long as you don't miss out on a cast

copper sundial

Timing with lust is pretty big but yeah sitting on the cast is no bueno

spice haven
#

Hey, should i craft the legendary back with Doomblade for the assasination rogue as my first legendary?

limber lion
#

It's not the best for m+ though

spice haven
#

But wouldnt I play outlaw in m+ anyway?

hollow river
#

Or sub

#

Or@sin

#

They all good rn poggers

spice haven
#

haha okay so what would be the best choice for raid and m+ to play rn?

#

Assa or sub?

hollow river
#

Sub does more dps

#

Front loaded

spice haven
#

Ah okay

hollow talon
#

is shadowgrasp totem actually good now or is it simbait

hollow river
#

Instead of backloaded dot spread

#

Outlaw is fine for m+ dps wise and U get another interrupt

spice haven
#

So if i wanted to go for a allrounder (Since in just started the rogue) the best choice would be sub then i assume?

hollow river
#

I play sub

spice haven
#

Since i need to run m+ and raid at the same time currently

hollow river
#

And sin on cleave raid fights

spice haven
#

Okay thanks 🙂 That helped me alot actually

hollow river
#

Venthyr sub prolly best bet for both in 1 spec

#

All specs are good, sin is great in raid and m+, just falls a bit behind later in the patch and can be harder to learn it’s aoe compared to sub

spice haven
#

Thanks for the quick help 🙂 I'll go for sub then for now to start with

Ye I assume its therefor undersimming

I doubt it

balmy condor

yeah I thought this might happen

The sim probably just really wants to use IQD + Flag + Vend sync

And by using Flag on cd, you'd miss one sync of them

wait, this isn't obed

It's not
