We are getting it down semi quickly but we have more melee than ranged I think
how is the damage of the ranged?
I am mobile rn, so I can’t see spike damage very wel but I can link logs and you can tell me
If that’s easier
I’d say low at best
yeah i can take a look
which one are you?
I don’t know if I just need to find the sweet spot and hit it with some more muts
hiki?
Hiki
I think I’m lowest tho
Which is just due to only fok due to being spooked
conisdering you have a boomy---mage---lock---hunter----priest
they shouldnt have a issue dealing with it
if they are switching immedietly
Nah I think it’s a them not switching issue
I mostly just back up while meleeing the balls, not a whole lot to it, reverse or backpedal is faster than the ball moves
Still worth me looking into. Just looking to improve. My damage was excellent tonight, messed up my opener a couple times and yeah nah, we were wiping to shit like spikes and bomb placement
Def agree with you!
are there any fights where we would run obedience over Doomblade?
a warrior
Anything with adds
should not be top 3rd damage to balls
Bldestorm Whirlwind
🙂
a healer was above the boomy
on damage spike ball wise
on the last pull
so was both tanks
is there a droplist for the domination shards or is it random :)
oo ok
i'd tell your raid lead to look more carefully at these
your range are either not switching instantly or something because
even on your longest pull the tanks did almost as much damage as the boomy
definitely, I’d imagine if that’s the first thing they are looking at with raid over tonight he will see the ranged not swapping and bust their balls.
My boss damage was unmatched. The monk is the only one who was up there with me
Sometimes the lock
Idk why we are pretending we can't pump the spiked balls as sin lol. Obv we don't need to be topping but I don't see the downside to swapping to balls
never said that but
I don’t think that’s what he’s saying
you guys running skirmish on chest or Eternal stats on chest? They both sim very close for me, but I feel like Stats might be slightly better for any fight that has adds in it?
thoughts?
Sim it
I run skirmish cause it sims higher
No need to be rude hoss, but that’s what every person in here is going to tell ya
He wasn't rude
If skirmish sims higher then skirmish she goes
Not rude, just clarified that I did sim :x

Was also wondering since fights with adds I figured Eternal stats pulls ahead
I think there’s a way to sim that too but I feel like the difference would be about the same
Too small to tell
So if i only have one option to craft for mythic prog should i craft DB or OB?
Sim it and see
just curious, I've never used Skirmish, I have eternal stats and probs going to switch
Without testing, DB. IMO I think obed will shine on fights with add phases
I personally will be crafting both on my cloak tomorrow, and waiting to craft r5 til more logs come out with obed
DB is only ahead by like 40
^
In pure ST
and obed tends to pull ahead in cleave/multitarget add phases
Obed is gonna shine, I believe 
It sims like
it sims 30 under for me at 235
30 better then my doom with one domination gem
Sheeeeesh, I haven’t gotten any shards worth a heck
It was just gear compare
Have only got crit/haste boots with the domination socket
Got a cipher ring and the neck out of sanquine from M+ earlier
All I’ve gotten this tier
We will see if my vault likes me
I hope my vault likes me. I don’t want to live in PF I hope it just gives me Phial
So I can live in piece
3 cloaks inc
Pls don’t do me like that lol
more like 2 chests 1 boots
I’d take phial or shadow grasp
I deserve better
I have a 226 shadowgrasp it’s phat
220 phial 220 decanter currently
233 ticking bag of overtuned explosion and 226 shadowgrasp
Idk why bloodmallet doesn’t have comparisons for the hardmode version, but it’s doing a healthy chunk of my damage
Is it worth using crimson temp on ST?
like if you already have it talented I mean, for m+
Yes, outside of shiv windows
so is it back to doomblade over obidence?
It’s really a tbd. Gonna see how the cards lie
but always check pins. Whispyr does an absolutely GODLY job of keeping information as new and fresh as possible. He’s the man 
Obedience > Doomblade for everything that matters pretty much
I am just going Doomblade again for t5
ill make more after for situational stuff
im still necro though
didn't want to reset my renown right now
renown catch up is really fast now though so itd be better to do it sooner rather than later
the longer you wait the longer itll take to get caught up later
If you aren't trying to minmax it won't matter than much probably
This is false information, without knowing how it performs in the raid, there’s no way you can say confidently to build obedience over Doomblade.
it’s definitely competitive, but saying it’s better without proper testing is silly
You can confidently say that because the hard fights have intermissions and burst phases that prefer how obedience lines up CDs
Plus it's better if you want to do M+ on Sin
And it's BiS for Sub
it being bis for sub has nothing to do with it being okay for sin lmao.
I mean it's BiS for minmaxing if sub ends up being ahead somewhere, so it's just a side benfit
Not that it really seems like Sub will be ahead on most fights
maybe like guardian
You make very fair arguments. I just think personally until there is more testing and seeing where it shines the most it’s you’ll find more value out of DB I guess it’s easier for me to say that when I’m recrafting both tomorrow
Painsmith, Rune guy, and Sylvanas all have mechanics that end up favoring obedience. KT too tbh
Obed is 110% the move for m+ tho
I cannot wait for that
and I think Doomblade is going to be higher on KT
That’s a 
Maybe, it kinda depends on how it makes obedience line up with phylactery if ytou're in phylactery group
Which you probably should be as sin
Exactly
Which really depends on your TTK on KT
See, that’s why I say needs more testing. Too much feelcrafting going on to know what’s good where.
You better believe you’ll max both
Well painsmith/rune guy aren't feelcrafting like it's straight up better there I'm sure
I personally cannot wait to SLAM keys with obed
Hc nerzhul dagger fuck
It's also better if you can bribe a priest into PIing you
With PI you can basically guarantee 30 stacks which means you will always have Flag with Vendetta and PI every 2min
Gonna be hard to beat rogues with pocket priests lol
what stat does soleahs sim for us? haste?
Got the Heroic Nerzhul dagger thus will never see sylv dagger
Doomblade or obe tmr. Can't decide :(
Tazavesh trinket proc does bigboi dmg
Just top dps the raid every night then you’ll get all the pis 
That’s what I did tonight
Took every single pi besides like the first couple pulls when I was BUSTIN on mfers, then one of our priests whispered me and said hey vendetta on cd every 2 minutes right? And I said absolutely, count to 3 after pull then PI

Sack trink even on 226 nutz ye? So 2 chancer per cd to loot 1 normal and 1 hc mode
Inb4 they nerf it
Or hc and normal share cd
No main stat and it's only 233 rn so I don't think so, also no good aoe
If its doing 7-9% of my total damage no need to think about aoe)
so i have to do a key for that dungeon's loot to be in my vault loot table right?
if i dont do it this week, it wont be in it?
i take it you haven't met our lord and savior 252 phial
nah on m+ you wont beat sack
Finger crossed on weekly cache for phial ofc
anyone?
why does blood mallet and hero damage have dashing simming insane
and its not mentioned in the pins sim
isnt vault 252?
ooh I aint upging till next week
So 2 good items at start of new week hopefully
when we can get drops from 15s
Next week
No
Its random
sick ty
Was curious bout this aswell
i mean you can sim it yourself
it's not insane
the orange is the effect
6.49 compared to 6.31 from doomblade, compared to 6.55 from obedience
that's all within margin of error
just like it was for all of 9.0.5
my sims also have it that close
and it's always been that close
there is nothing weird about it
yeah dashing has always been right there
How bad if all my secondary stats are on crit instead of haste
what do sims say
I freshly geared a second rogue from ilvl 0 to 224 and obviously didn’t get the bis pieces so all my stats are everywhere
I’m like 10% haste and 30% crit
It’s funny
Compared to my main rogue
Yea should prob just check myself on sims, but I wonder the difference
Between same ilvl but diff secondary stats
Mostly just trying to reassure myself as I will have to use that second rogue for mythic
isnt dashing still scuffed from the poison issue?
we live in a world where 100 dps means op
is dashing noticeable with regen which would make it funner?
thinking about running it over doom
and because i made doom a shoulder lol
Hello everyone! So I am newer to rogue and am curious will the new obedience leggo be good for me if I only range between 18 and 22 flag stacks or would you all say just stick with doomblade?
Thanks a million!!
wouldn't really say "noticeable", but you do notice it if you're trying to look for it
looking at all the sims in the pins it looks like venthyr is bis for all specs? worth to switch over even if I just switched to necro this week?
100 dps isn't for dashing though. It's 100 dps for all covenants, which ends up being like 10-15 dps for dashing then, which still puts it within margin 
venthyr is good, necro is good, play what you'd like
My b. Competitive is a probably a better word than insane
dashing sims highest in aoe on bloodmallet too
is venthyr playstyle easier compared to necro for an average player? or is it comparable with knowledge of the basics?
was just wondering why its so competitive and not mentioned in your sims @balmy condor
hectic add cleave is a pretty useless sim type
wouldn't really consider that
ya i didnt mean 100 actually just as an example on where small gains are stronk gains
it's not mentioned in my sims because last patch I had like 6 pins of sims comparing everything, which had dashing showing competitive, and people said it was too confusing, and because I compared legendaries to a blank character in order to keep it fair (some covenants make legendaries higher than other covenants). Obviously that's not possible to do anymore, since I need to also consider covenant legendaries now, making blank characters not something I can reasonably put into one pin. So from where I'm sitting right, I have 2 issues:
- I have people saying too many pins, too confusing, too many numbers
- it's about to get more complicated to do the same thing that people are already complaining about
so the solution that I came up with after talking to some people, is showing the best combination for each soulbind, and condensing it into one pin. The best combination for each soulbind, was doomblade by slight amounts. People already all have doomblade, so there's no point putting a different legendary into that comparison, considering they do basically the same thing. I can probably get around to adding a section onto my spreadsheet later this week, with the actual comparisons if you'd like to see that. (After the 5 log reviews I have waiting, and the updates I need to do to the defensive sheet, and the 3 day raiding and 5 day work week, you know how it is). If you have another suggestion on how to present the data in a short, readable manner, I'm all ears, cause the way I give people data in the pins kept me up for a good 3-4 nights
Get'm whispyr
Eh, I hope my question isn't coming off as any kind of disrespect.
Was just a simple question. I appreciate the work you do for the discord.
you've been hard at work, thank you 
nah no disrespect at all
I write novels cause I think about this kind of stuff
a lot
There's been instances where blood mallet/hero damage weren't the most trustworthy sources. Your explanation makes sense, absolutely nobody is running dashing.
yeah
I mean you definitely can
I was going to craft dashing for fun myself
there's some unlucky timing for dashing as well
cause when the choice had to be made for dashing/doomblade
envenom was bugged
it was sorta similar to this bug that we have now
but it hurt dashing pretty hard
and then everyone just crafted the newly freshly buffed doomblade, cause it did the same thing
and then because everyone had doomblade already, and dashing basically fills the same niches
no one was interested in dashing really
This’ll sound like a meme but honestly dashing’s issue is that it isn’t doomblade
people who just look at logs saw doomblade, so they crafted doomblade as well
Doomblade does nothing interactive wise to change the base rotation
and then there was just no room for dashing
dashing suffers from the fact that it does nothing particularly better than doomblade
it doesn't do anything worse, but it doesn't do anything better either
it's just a copy
Poison crit now throws a monkey wrench into pacing
that isn't particularly amazing
For the better
252 phial tomorrow guys 
You wish
big satisfying noise with no damage 
my man you write too slow
Poison Bomb is basically peeing on enemy feet
Dashing is better in a cleave or add scenario though right? With obedience coming that probably doesn't matter much anymore.
Kinda
it seems not a lot of people played ago poison and then poison bomb procs
from last to first
Shadowgrasp totemsssss
For all
yeah for sure a 252 dagger and a phial + iqd + totem
def not gonna be garbage at all
idgaf

you see my avatar. Grasp is life
3 cloaks and 2 heroic cloaks
Holy shit KT winds are toxic
doomblade is stronger on 2 targets, and zold beats both of them comfortably on 3+ and dungeonslice
so there's nothing really for dashing
build dashing
get rank 1 on all fights
make people waste soulash
???
profit?
you have to unlock the secret extra poison
the trinket poison 
It’s just shiv now
build dashing
"why did you build dashing?"
dunno was fun
bored streamer crafts it
new meta?
deathly is dead, relationship with dashing begins
raid shadow legends sponsor
???
kill boss
can't wait to see that happening in 2 weeks
is doom actually stronger than obed on 2t?
i figured obed would be stronger 2t
When your deathly macro equips dashing 👌
r5 obedience 
crit vers or crit haste 
crit/verse may be the play if you're playing sub a lot
but i'm just going to roll crit/haste and never look back
we can achiev 48 renown this next reset?
loool i'm not surprised
poison bomb actually only wins on uh
27 targets
niiice
the secret assa funnel strat in DoS
now if poison bomb applied lethal poison
the secret ardenweald padding with poison bomb
if you can stack 27 mobs that close together
and then you're barely beating CT
super poggers
Hey peeps. Coming back for 9.1. Used to play outlaw but Ass rogue seems good again. Is Venthyr to the general go to again or is Kyrian okay?
Sylv is such a trash tier fight
Still trash
just had to kill her on the 6 hours she didnt use the tank mechanic on last phase
ezz
With p3 being the only remotely fun part of the fight.
wdym, you don’t like the new shonen main protagonist boss fight?
Idgaf about story lol. It's just not a fun fight.
bitch dashin around like it’s dragon ball z
P1 is too easy to care, P2 a long ass boring walk fight
How long should something be alive to warrant applying rupture/garrote to it?
as close to the applied duration as possible
alright, so spend less CP on it if they'll probably die around the duration's end then?
Yes
alright, thanks
P1 is simultaneously easy and infuriating.
“We should make her do flashy moves to make it interesting”
The unending running around in p1 is pretty uninteresting
When we were there for the first few times we thought we need to wait for 30 sec after each P1. Then we realized some guy was watching the cinematic everytime 
can rogues safely shadowstep behind spike balls on painsmith?
No
No
last phase is good imo
Damn you guys
Do u have the one for ST?
Here I am, trying to get over the Painsmith wall
Painsmith is a proper hard boss, ngl. Took us some pulls, too
I really like it though - if they remove melee chains.
That's the most tilting thing, ngl.
only time I got chains was the pull we killed it 🥲
:-(
Quick question, is loot from the last 2 raid bosses guaranteed?
hey guys, for painshmith fight, is it good idea to use fok instead of mut for funeling on spiked balls?
Yeah fuk dat
Ryfie was talking about it earlier but I didn’t get a chance to ask what exactly that meant
Are they gonna remove that tho?
Why the hell would you do that?
Gg 51,8% heroic sylvanas :((((
To gain cp?
I didn’t get loot from Kel tho
I mean in great vault, sorry
yes, to gain cp
dont kill me if this has been asked before but what stats should we go for Leggo if we plan to use Obedience for both Sub and Assa?
P3 legit seems easy, but then again I can't get my raiders to stop greeding for stack clears in p1 when they only have 1 stack
We will see in some hours but at least I did not see anything mentioned in any ptr notes about that and it was not last tier.
No
Crit/Vers probably but it does not really matter.
Soleahs Secret Technique from HM Tazavesh - worth it to eq?
It's a decentish stat stick. Depends on your alternatives.
testing HC Relic of the frozen waists
213 cube and 213 Phial
Not as good as it sounds on paper?
can't crit
my 229 vial does x4 times it's dmg

in a 5 min fight
Maybe incorrectly implemented in sims or bugged?
no clue....
It sims like... Decently higher than my 226 skulker's
it does 2% overall with both parts
the extra agi ye it's nice
but 229 vial doing 5% passively ? 😄
2% on ST?
That's not too hot.
Also tbf, Phial kinda good.
So hard to compare to

What is your opening on single target RAID scenerio?
so i guess this is a no?
If you are talented into crimson tempest is it a dps loss to use on a single target?
yes, fok
k, ty
np
don't even know what this is, sounds awful
yes, outside of shiv
But isnt our 2 bis ST trinkets from Plaguefall
Shadowgrasp?
Ooze and Phial is what im running
ooze is pretty good
take that 252 holy hot dam....
did u guys see that Method was offering 2 million gold for rogues to get that Dagger off sylvanas and trade it
They would pay more
max from limit played some assasination for heroic so i dont see reason why he would play it in heroic and not mythic
He's gonna be 21st man in mythic
So good thinking 😄
I main outlaw and mainly do m+ - have only played rogue for a few weeks (used to main rogue in tbc). Currently necrolord - picked up two daggers. Is it worth speccing assa for raid as necrolord?
Necro assa is fine for single target yes
how many fights do we use zoldyck on? should I bother making it?
Thanks. I suppose my other alterbative would be to comkit to balls deep venthyr...
On all fights in m+ so yeh def worth if you’re not venthyr
U dont need zoldyck for raid
the first boss is ok to use
btw, once we have obedience tomorrow we are "forced" to play DS?
Or can still play EP/Vigor
or DS/vigor lol
oh wait nm u cant
lmao
Painsmith is fine too since he’s annoying in P3
can you shadowstep painsmith balls without getting smacked?
no
ok, thanks
Is there a way to see what powers rogues had for Tarragrue in WCL?
I'm reading CD usage on iv, except pooling energy for shiv, we don't do any tricks like having 4 5 cp ready, right??
Nah press it on cd
You can even press it at max CP so you don’t delay
True
Start thinking about Shiv as an uptime debuff and less of a cd window.
And your life gets easier.
Why not?
Thank you, my brain like to over complicate things and this drives me crazy
same tier
I thought he was asking if we can play Vigor over DS
DS / vigor together not possible i mean
yeah I know lol
Give me DS+Vigor any day of the week 
so we forced to play DS tho?
Finally some good f*** gameplay.
I mean, why forced?
It's a dps gain, ye.
Doesn't force you into it, it's still rather smallish.
yeah? Oh damn nice then lol
yeah basically by "forced" I meant that the dps difference increased
Not sure about Obedience, ngl. Might be
Sim your character and judge for yourself 
Ye thats patchwerk aswell, i feel like doing mechanics with vigor feels less punishing cuz of the bigger pool
Dont know if it actually works that way tho just feels like it
Yup, does not hurt with downtime.
Also it's just smoother imho
Like ngl, you won't not kill a boss because you ran vigor over DS
And unless your are RWF or like top 50 raiding you will overgear fights anyways.
So at least imo: Go vigor if vigor life is what you like :D
17k envenom 
It feels good to actually see yourself on the dps meters on pull 
Not happening with ds
Vigor massive morale booster
I mean, this tier you show up on the meters a lot :P
Assa is pretty well-tuned and some fights it exceeds on imo
any log analyzer warlords
If youre on shiv window and garrotes falling off will refilling it be prior to slamming 3rd envenom?
Oh ye okay, fair :D
Yes.
@balmy condor sorry for el pingo. Is there some bot command for people not having to worry so much to get 3 envenoms each shiv that one could use the 30x it gets asked daily?
Nice 
Boys, need some feedback on the guardian log. Please ignore the wrong soulbinds (forgot to change to dauntless)... Much appreciated! https://www.warcraftlogs.com/reports/Txqhn6PQf9AZLRtb/#fight=last&type=damage-done&source=12
Even tho Obedience is a small % behind Doomblade. if u wanna play both sub and assa its better to craft Obedience right?
or is Doomblade too good to pass off
If you wanna play both Assa and Sub you can go Obe
they seem to be pretty close
Yeh auper slow start
can someone tell me why shadowgrasp totem is a good trinket now?
good question
i just got a 229 one
i also have a 229 one
i heard something to do with the shadow damage
but id like to hear it from someone like @balmy condor why it sims high?
It’s funny that it’s an upgrade to my 233 sire trinket on assa but not on sub
Oh that’s why
I've seen logs where a 229 shadowgrasp does close to double of a phial
So i see a tendency of people running EP + Vigor rather than Blindside and DS is it because of Necrolords vs. Venthyr?
it's a lot better with venthyr to be fair
lines up with flags
which give a lot of haste
oh true
sheesh
just a lot of big haste scaling
now i see the powah
does shadowgrap snapshot the haste
no
or does it just roll with the soulbind
the soulbind?
it basically ticks like rupture
exsang snapshots haste
but that's because exsang has to
for janky mechanic reasons
euphoria
Do we still craft crit/haste on our new cloaks today for the venthyr legendary?
I can’t wait to play exsanguinate build again
interesting
(exsang doesn't actually double the tick rate, it takes the old dots off, and instantly reapplies new dots with 2x the tick rate of the old ones)
yes
ahhhhh mkay
euphoria gives haste, so if euphoria procs during it, would speed it up, yeah
i heard exsang will be good eventually ??
Do you think we have enough haste to play exsang this patch?

needa track euphoria den
if we were hard capped at the max
with 126% haste and mastery for maximum poison damage
i doubt we see exsang without borrowed power forcing it
and exsang was a 30 second cooldown
It was a really fun build back in BFA
it still wouldn't be close to alacrity
lmfao
Good
like

ABYSMAL
i love that word
venom rush is on the same row, and honestly, kinda better

we should start a petition for a exsang rework
damage multiplier would be the only way to really save it
big dot
yea just needs dam lol
I did some spell overrides to make it like 300% and 30 second cooldown
which would've been way way stronger than legion
and it was still absolute canned trash
lol damn
need big dam dot
and then galecallers
and then blood
and then the haste mods on top of it
they just kept throwing more and more and more short bursty things at it
and it became good
that being said though, something a lot of people fail to recognize
exsang was meta, but only was about 1.5% ahead of the double dose stuff
like even with all the juice, the most dreamer patch for bleed builds
it was still just barely better
wasn't dd better on some lengths
yeah
lul
it was fun to play tho
Yup, so frustrating at start but hella fun when you get the full expedient build
So much apm
Can anyone help out, and go through our rogue her logs? I feel like she's doing mediocre damage, but unfortunately I lack the class knowledge to actively guide her.
https://www.warcraftlogs.com/reports/GybjtJTLhFxBcrfR/#fight=2&type=damage-done
220 ilvl
she got a 80% rank for her itemlvl
hey guys, can anyone help with the priority of bone spike? I believe you use it in the opener, but during normal rotation do you only use it when you're about to cap charges?
which means give her more gear
ilvl parses are never accurate, and very unreliable though.
- Apply dot
- Extend LBE/Kevin, or cast during gemstone
- Don't overcap
I'll take a look real quick and dm you
Thanks whispyr! 🙂 so pretty much outside of that, it's last priority
3 would be your last priority
her itemization also doesnt loot the best, should focus on crit/haste
also a 187 offhand kek
you can compare her here with others https://www.warcraftlogs.com/zone/rankings/28#boss=2432&class=Rogue&spec=Assassination&difficulty=4&covenant=4&soulbind=5&bracket=6
Is Venthyr and Obedience still go to for the new raid even with the upcoming nerf?
just wondering if i should swap from Necro even when i have max rank for both Doomblade and zoldyck

sims show it's super close to each other
obedience can however also be used as subtlety (well also outlaw but it's not the greatest there)
yeah exactly, seems like logs are showing a decent split on most bosses
since they're that close, it doesn't matter much unless you do m+, then i guess necro is somewhat easier to manage
Hello guys, i feel like i'm doing something wrong and i don't know what it is... I'm a bit new to rogue and i would appreciate some help if someone can look at my logs 🙂 (i know i have bad stats atm)
https://www.warcraftlogs.com/reports/NCkRgLQ8hZf7vB1y/#fight=last&type=damage-done&source=13
I mean it can use obedience but it just maxes out at 20 stacks
Is that 0.3% gonna stop you from using it
how do you guys feel about swapping to sylvanas arrows? ppl who progressed
Put some muts / envenoms on arrows that are very close to sylv
otherwhise stay boss
you're there for boss dmg
tunneling is what we do best 👀
zzz tell my RL that
ye thats what ended up happening. tried actually killing them and i had to take a chemo in the 15min brake
its so bad
i feel this, i'm being asked to swap to painsmith balls despite the fact they are up for less than 5 seconds and we are failing the boss dps check 
yes
exactly the same situation
it just sounds like you have a RL that doesnt understand - best you can do is follow what they say and then point out why its not gonna work
or check if the people who can actually do the dmg are slamming as best they can
yea i did that and then i got shouted at for my dmg on the boss dropping by more than the increase on the balls so cant really win
if they aint, get on their case first and then see if you need to help
this is probably also why boomers are so good on painsmith, they pad with starfall but not double/triple ss 
i'm scared of looking at my raid logs from yesterday since i'm not sure how to decipher the information and improve in the new raid 😅
send me a dm and I'll look at it tomorrow
I'm just finishing up my last one for tonight
2am

oh cool! thanks Whispyr!
Much appriciated!
can u still get renown from heroics at 42 renown?
go on then lads any updates on the Venth v Necro battle?
Night Fae coming in hot with the steel chair
Damn, I think that this discord is sometimes like another job for you.
oh it definitely is. I'm in here like 16-18 hours a day, and when I'm lurking I'm usually simming or working on the defensive sheet or doing some other stuff
I like helping people idk
Icy Veins mentions to start with Mutilate from stealth if you're using Master Assassin, but that should be Ambush right?
More dmg for equal amount of energy cost and CP gain.
!mut
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.
hey guys, what combat potion should we use?
rogue discord is 10000% better than the other classes i have been in
!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
Oh wow, interesting, thanks! Didn't know about the CP thing. Time for that faq? 😄
For the venthyr ability, do we pool and build cp before using or just press it on CD???
rogue discord is a roundtable of monocle ppl drinking coffee. the rest is a preschool playground
yeah just finalizing I guess
press it when you're about to cast a finisher next
(waiting on the other specs to agree and stuff)
Sweet, and I'm done with dumb qurstions
@balmy condor good night

Hey, hows obedience looking post nerf? Is it still better than doomblade?
So I guess we assa rogues need to craft doomblade on back again

doomblade still pretty hype
obedience is the smart craft if you wanna play sub/sin
unless you already had doomblade and akaari then i'd say bin obedience off
for raids that is ^^
Doomblade is like 0.1% better on pure st, obedience should be better with more targets i'll make obedience r6 first
0,34% according to sims
Also I wish to enjoy flagellation cdr goodness
Akaari doesn’t do more st than finality for me
really? thats surprising its about 100 dps ahead for me 🙂
It’s within 10 dps for me what
obedience is also harder to use than doomblade
so unless you play textbook perfect you might as well keep doomblade
do you guys prefer to sim 1 target, 2/3 targets and 5 targets for assassination rogue or just 1 target for raiding and 7 for m+? seems like a lot of people are doing different things 👀
dungeonslice for M+
Yep dslice for m+ 1 target for raid
Anyone know off the top how much currency is needed for the new leggo? I believe it's only soul cinders right, no ash?
rank 5 and 6
Rank 5 upgrade costs 5,150 Soul Ash and 1,100 Soul Cinders.
Rank 6 upgrade costs 5,150 Soul Ash and 1,650 Soul Cinders.
Don't forget it's cumulative. If you have a r4 already it's only 1650 cinders to get to r6
It's whatever
They are even in sims
If you plan to play sub then obedience is the go to
If you stay sin just pick one
But according to Bloodmallet Dashing Scoundrel should be a contender also, no?
I am using dashing currently. I started back up last week and wasn't able to get doomblade first week
it feels okay, it's fine for single target, but it actually feels better in AoE, getting an envenom off and then having all your poisons crit feels good, but single target is... okay? it honestly doesn't even feel like the energy regen is there.
That's why there are sims
obedience is probably the better overall choice
for the exact same reasons that people suggested going finality over akaari for sub originally
Im puting crit/haste on my obidience regardless of sub/sin. Juuust in case
Goin to see what the big boys do and copy them so hard
Then answer questions here like it was my idea
#SimYoSelf #YourMilesMayVary
absolutely is, sub will be good for farm parse runs when the fights are shorter for sure though.
in pure ST doomblade wins yes
its like 60 ahead in whispyrs sims
actually like 38
im sure even 2t-3t maybe it wins too but the vers could be really good.
tbh doomblade better for consistency also target swapping/moving away from melee range is not very punishing if we considering againts flag/obe. I would say if you are raiding as sin Doomblade is still best option unless they revert the versa nerf from obe
I'll definitely be heading into mythic with obe
Looking at the pins I'd you want to duo reading dungeons, obe should be the first craft
Doom is ahead on 2, but not again by much
Raiding dugeons'
Zold's is ahead on 3 
for dungeons i go sub
tbh i m not fan of target swapping dotting etf
finality is a good lego for it
Hello, where should I put Doomblade?
cloak
Sims are one thing in game is a other thing.. so in the end .. after 4 weeks i think neco will be the one togo
Okey, thanks
crit haste
Yeah love it
eye as well
I was having a vision of zoldyck+sylv daggers and helmir last trait
sub and sin is so unfair for eye
For executes
Putting 2,5k between you and the sub rogue feels hella good
u literally dont need to dodge anything jus shadowstep
truew
are you talking about lazer thing?
Outlaw can dodge that with hook as well
Cloak or step, both fine
i think hes talking about something else
You keep a lot more uptime then
i save cloak for oh shit moments
I dodge those
tbh real question for me between vent vs necro is "Fleshcraft"
so much incoming damage in sod
Your healers love you for having it some times yes
Yeah, or the dance phase on painsmith
using Obedience i will lose 85dps when simced 😮
i dk bro while in flag and if you get bad combo gen due to rng crit it might be bad
thats why i said doom better for consistency
lol
#SimYoSelf
and stop getting feelsy with it
Doom will most likely be better in pure ST, and 2t-3t. it will not be better in M+
I wonder if u can see how many stacks on average flag is getting when using obedience in sims
obedience wont change the stacks
on average most people get 20-23. the most people get seems to be about 28
so this is kinda awkward
when playing obedience u use flag on cd right?
you use flag on CD now
just simmed obedience and zoldycks and ma sims higher for me
lol
https://www.raidbots.com/simbot/report/wYiTbZwfiDV3WD63LAL4Xo anyone wanna tell me whats wrong
if possible
MfD 
nothing is wrong, you just have like 150 crit on your gear
so ma is gonna sim higher
yeah but wouldnt that reduce the value of ma
MfD is just aids to use lol
no
we LOVE crit
and you not having any makes it better
i have 35% crit
i have like, unironically 34% crit
guys anyone able to send a link here to see current rogues using which covenant already?
yeah i know but i wanna see the percents
Looking at sims, do we still go for obedience, since it’s close but more versatile?
but once i have better pieces for assass i obedience should be simming higher now right?
just check logs then if you want
u can check warcraftlogs i suppose
Not exactly.
since the nerf, doom is better at ST/2t/3t and obedience is better at M+
if you're venthyr
well ya this is specifically for m+
oh then yes
yea in m+ it will get better
in st its on par/slightly worse than doom
u wont notice the diff on st tbh
bc im wracking my skinny little brain trying to figure out whether i should make zoldyck or obedience
i guess im gonna make obedience
i used top gear
nah
No top gear u can add legos
^
Ah, well both work then
Its the easier way to sim legos u dont have
Cool. ~
also is it just me or is doing torghast solo as sin really hard
am i missing something
what ilvl are you?
also, if you arent geared really for sin it might be hard. Sin has some busted builds you can go for
yo let me in on those busted builds 👀
I find it really easy to do torghast as solo sin
Except in some wings like Mort'regar this week
where it can get out of hand
Doing Thorgast as sin alrdy sounds super annoying
Out of all 3 specs sin has been the easiest for me
I mean, get plenty of the power that gives your generators more damage after finishing.
The one that does damage to enemies around you.
The one that gives you Symbols, Adrenaline, and vendetta.
Some of the talent choices are good.
Evenom damage.
The extra poison.
plenty of good choices
ok but for the sake of speedrunning torghast
Why not do it as OL
Red venom is nice
because i dont wanna change conduits xd
because sin is perfectly fine.
well no i think hes asking me that bc im geared for outlaw
^this
hmm obedience ilvl 235 sims 64 dps lower than my doomblade which has the ilvl 210 lego
:Monkas:
make sure to acommadate for the peice you replaced.
im nots ure why people struggle with sin torghast wise.
but i will say if you're geared as outlaw, do it as outlaw.
im pretty sure i did
i had to put a domination gem in one of my spots to have it sim higher for me
huh weird
it'll prob be simming higher when we have more gear
if im gonna run 20 torghasts in a row again i would prefer to not have to change to outlaw
yeah probs only does rlly well with more gear I suppose
but i guess if i have to
i've done both layers by my self and got a rank 4
its pretty easy then
yeah but that takes too long
it really doesnt
welll yea
or most things
yes...?
its like 15-20 min or so
you want to do everything if youre trying to get to the enxt level
for a full run with pugs
yes?
im talking abt speedrunning it over and over again to farm soul ash
okay u sac an extra 5 min at most
