Honestly, if you have good range it should go down in seconds

winged basin
#

We are getting it down semi quickly but we have more melee than ranged I think

odd hazel
#

how is the damage of the ranged?

winged basin
#

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

odd hazel
#

yeah i can take a look

winged basin
#

They said this was my only issue tonight was low damage on balls

odd hazel
#

which one are you?

winged basin
#

I don’t know if I just need to find the sweet spot and hit it with some more muts

odd hazel
#

hiki?

winged basin
#

Hiki

odd hazel
#

i mean

#

seems most of your melle have low damage to it

winged basin
#

I think I’m lowest tho

odd hazel
#

nah

#

the other rogue did less

winged basin
#

Which is just due to only fok due to being spooked

cyan dew
#

Rogue need time to do damage, so we don't do much damage on balls

#

That's it

odd hazel
#

conisdering you have a boomy---mage---lock---hunter----priest

#

they shouldnt have a issue dealing with it

#

if they are switching immedietly

winged basin
#

Nah I think it’s a them not switching issue

narrow ravine
#

I mostly just back up while meleeing the balls, not a whole lot to it, reverse or backpedal is faster than the ball moves

winged basin
#

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

odd hazel
#

i mean as much as that is true

#

the balls are 99% a range job

winged basin
#

Def agree with you!

peak bobcat
#

are there any fights where we would run obedience over Doomblade?

odd hazel
#

a warrior

winged basin
odd hazel
#

should not be top 3rd damage to balls

winged basin
#

IMO

#

That’s my Raid Lead

#

And if you look it’s a lot of pad

odd hazel
#

like

#

your boomy

winged basin
#

Bldestorm Whirlwind

odd hazel
#

in the last pull

#

was bottom 4th

#

the boomie

winged basin
#

🙂

odd hazel
#

a healer was above the boomy

#

on damage spike ball wise

#

on the last pull

#

so was both tanks

winged basin
#

:)))

#

It was a rough night, we wiped consistently after first transition

odd hazel
#

on

#

your longest pull

#

a ret had the most damage done to it

nimble tartan
#

is there a droplist for the domination shards or is it random :)

odd hazel
#

its random from raid bosses

#

tbh toad

nimble tartan
#

oo ok

odd hazel
#

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

winged basin
#

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

sacred yarrow
#

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

odd hazel
#

never said that but

winged basin
#

I don’t think that’s what he’s saying

odd hazel
#

obviously he can be BETTE Rat it

#

yes

opaque tree
#

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?

opaque tree
#

I did

#

did you not read?

#

lol

winged basin
#

I run skirmish cause it sims higher

opaque tree
#

:\

#

skirmish is like 1% higher for me

winged basin
#

No need to be rude hoss, but that’s what every person in here is going to tell ya

twilit hollow
#

He wasn't rude

winged basin
#

If skirmish sims higher then skirmish she goes

opaque tree
#

Not rude, just clarified that I did sim :x

odd hazel
#

Use the higher one then

#

You answered your own question

winged basin
opaque tree
#

Was also wondering since fights with adds I figured Eternal stats pulls ahead

winged basin
#

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

opaque tree
#

okay

#

thanks

peak bobcat
#

So if i only have one option to craft for mythic prog should i craft DB or OB?

opaque tree
#

just curious, I've never used Skirmish, I have eternal stats and probs going to switch

winged basin
#

I personally will be crafting both on my cloak tomorrow, and waiting to craft r5 til more logs come out with obed

odd hazel
#

DB is only ahead by like 40

winged basin
#

^

odd hazel
#

In pure ST

winged basin
#

and obed tends to pull ahead in cleave/multitarget add phases

#

Obed is gonna shine, I believe feelcraft

odd hazel
#

It sims like

winged basin
#

it sims 30 under for me at 235

odd hazel
#

30 better then my doom with one domination gem

winged basin
#

Sheeeeesh, I haven’t gotten any shards worth a heck

odd hazel
#

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

winged basin
#

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

wild beacon
#

3 cloaks inc

winged basin
#

Pls don’t do me like that lol

soft shale
#

more like 2 chests 1 boots

odd hazel
#

I’d take phial or shadow grasp

winged basin
#

I deserve better

odd hazel
#

I will

#

Literally end you lmao

winged basin
#

I have a 226 shadowgrasp it’s phat

odd hazel
#

220 phial 220 decanter currently

winged basin
#

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

plush garnet
#

Is it worth using crimson temp on ST?

#

like if you already have it talented I mean, for m+

winged basin
undone scroll
#

so is it back to doomblade over obidence?

odd hazel
#

#pins

#

And sim yo self

winged basin
#

but always check pins. Whispyr does an absolutely GODLY job of keeping information as new and fresh as possible. He’s the man KannaWave

frosty gyro
#

Obedience > Doomblade for everything that matters pretty much

narrow ravine
#

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

hollow hawk
#

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

frosty gyro
#

If you aren't trying to minmax it won't matter than much probably

winged basin
#

it’s definitely competitive, but saying it’s better without proper testing is silly

frosty gyro
#

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

winged basin
#

it being bis for sub has nothing to do with it being okay for sin lmao.

frosty gyro
#

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

winged basin
#

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

frosty gyro
#

Painsmith, Rune guy, and Sylvanas all have mechanics that end up favoring obedience. KT too tbh

winged basin
#

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 feelcraft

frosty gyro
#

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

winged basin
#

Exactly

frosty gyro
#

Which really depends on your TTK on KT

winged basin
#

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

frosty gyro
#

Well painsmith/rune guy aren't feelcrafting like it's straight up better there I'm sure

winged basin
#

I personally cannot wait to SLAM keys with obed

violet hemlock
#

Hc nerzhul dagger fuck

frosty gyro
#

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

tired sparrow
#

what stat does soleahs sim for us? haste?

balmy condor
#

yeah

#

it's awful

tired sparrow
#

beats this on an alt lmao

balmy condor
#

oh

#

yeah

#

that'll do it

violet hemlock
#

Got the Heroic Nerzhul dagger thus will never see sylv dagger

strange python

Doomblade or obe tmr. Can't decide :(

fallow otter
#

Tazavesh trinket proc does bigboi dmg

winged basin
#

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 KEKW KEKW

north basin
#

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

If its doing 7-9% of my total damage no need to think about aoe)

slow marsh
#

i mean you can sim it yourself

balmy condor
#

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

slow marsh
#

yeah dashing has always been right there

shell ivy
#

How bad if all my secondary stats are on crit instead of haste

slow marsh
#

what do sims say

shell ivy
#

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

slow marsh
#

there aren't really bis pieces

#

only sims

shell ivy
#

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

simple stratus
#

isnt dashing still scuffed from the poison issue?

balmy condor
#

it is

#

that's reflected in sims as well

simple stratus
#

roger

#

so if the poison issue was fixed, dashing would be very stronk

balmy condor
#

it would gain a little bit

#

very stronk isn't really the word for it

simple stratus
#

we live in a world where 100 dps means op

tacit pilot
#

is dashing noticeable with regen which would make it funner?

#

thinking about running it over doom

#

and because i made doom a shoulder lol

granite jackal
#

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?

balmy condor
#

sims take that all into account

#

so yes, obedience is good

granite jackal
#

Thanks a million!!

balmy condor
swift moss
#

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?

balmy condor
balmy condor
simple rivet
#

My b. Competitive is a probably a better word than insane

#

dashing sims highest in aoe on bloodmallet too

pseudo nimbus
#

is venthyr playstyle easier compared to necro for an average player? or is it comparable with knowledge of the basics?

simple rivet
#

was just wondering why its so competitive and not mentioned in your sims @balmy condor

balmy condor
#

wouldn't really consider that

simple stratus
#

ya i didnt mean 100 actually just as an example on where small gains are stronk gains

balmy condor
# simple rivet was just wondering why its so competitive and not mentioned in your sims <@!1670...

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:

  1. I have people saying too many pins, too confusing, too many numbers
  2. 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

slow marsh
#

Yeah get em

#

No respeccc i'll tell ya

simple rivet
#

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.

velvet escarp
balmy condor
#

nah no disrespect at all

#

I write novels cause I think about this kind of stuff

#

a lot

simple rivet
#

There's been instances where blood mallet/hero damage weren't the most trustworthy sources. Your explanation makes sense, absolutely nobody is running dashing.

balmy condor
#

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

thorny pond
#

This’ll sound like a meme but honestly dashing’s issue is that it isn’t doomblade

balmy condor
#

people who just look at logs saw doomblade, so they crafted doomblade as well

thorny pond
#

Doomblade does nothing interactive wise to change the base rotation

balmy condor
#

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

thorny pond
#

Poison crit now throws a monkey wrench into pacing

balmy condor
#

that isn't particularly amazing

thorny pond
#

For the better

thorny pond

Poison Bomb is basically peeing on enemy feet

simple rivet
#

Dashing is better in a cleave or add scenario though right? With obedience coming that probably doesn't matter much anymore.

soft shale
#

it seems not a lot of people played ago poison and then poison bomb procs

#

from last to first

simple rivet
#

Also, its gonna be really hard to choose between phial and a 252 dagger tomorrow

thorny pond
#

For all

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

mortal pike
#

how many fights do we use zoldyck on? should I bother making it?

I meant in raids 😮

maybe I should try assa though

U dont need zoldyck for raid

#

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

Painsmith is fine too since he’s annoying in P3

can you shadowstep painsmith balls without getting smacked?

Is there a way to see what powers rogues had for Tarragrue in WCL?

tardy knoll
#

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??

ornate lake
#

Nah press it on cd

red plaza
#

You can even press it at max CP so you don’t delay

ornate lake
#

True

modest jasper
#

Start thinking about Shiv as an uptime debuff and less of a cd window.

And your life gets easier.

Thank you, my brain like to over complicate things and this drives me crazy

I thought he was asking if we can play Vigor over DS

ornate lake
idle shard
#

yeah I know lol

modest jasper
#

Give me DS+Vigor any day of the week hehe

idle shard
#

so we forced to play DS tho?

modest jasper
#

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.

idle shard
#

yeah? Oh damn nice then lol

#

yeah basically by "forced" I meant that the dps difference increased

modest jasper
#

Not sure about Obedience, ngl. Might be

umbral rapids
#

Sim your character and judge for yourself wolfLol

modest jasper
#

Atm for me it's 50 dps or so

#

Not worth the hassle to me.

burnt latch
#

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

modest jasper
#

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.

burnt latch
#

Env muti env with vanish just hits different

#

Dont get that with ds

#

So satisfying

So at least imo: Go vigor if vigor life is what you like :D

We dont really burst that big

Especially with ds

#

Oh ye okay, fair :D

modest jasper
#

@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?

when we do that

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

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?

balmy condor
#

it's hasted

#

it's always been good

rigid tartan
#

It’s funny that it’s an upgrade to my 233 sire trinket on assa but not on sub

#

Oh that’s why

strange python
#

is it cuz we gettn more haste in 9.1

balmy condor
#

I've seen logs where a 229 shadowgrasp does close to double of a phial

strange python
#

that its even better now

#

wtf

uneven summit
#

So i see a tendency of people running EP + Vigor rather than Blindside and DS is it because of Necrolords vs. Venthyr?

balmy condor
#

it's a lot better with venthyr to be fair

#

lines up with flags

#

which give a lot of haste

strange python
#

oh true

balmy condor
#

also bloodlust

#

and all that

strange python
#

sheesh

balmy condor
#

just a lot of big haste scaling

strange python
#

now i see the powah

gloomy knoll
#

does shadowgrap snapshot the haste

balmy condor
#

no

gloomy knoll
#

or does it just roll with the soulbind

balmy condor
#

the soulbind?

strange python
#

i dont think anything snapshots anymore

#

idk

balmy condor
#

it basically ticks like rupture

#

exsang snapshots haste

#

but that's because exsang has to

#

for janky mechanic reasons

gloomy knoll
#

#

Do we still craft crit/haste on our new cloaks today for the venthyr legendary?

manic pebble
#

I can’t wait to play exsanguinate build again

strange python
#

interesting

balmy condor
#

(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)

strange python
#

ahhhhh mkay

balmy condor
strange python
#

i heard exsang will be good eventually ??

manic pebble
#

Do you think we have enough haste to play exsang this patch?

balmy condor
gloomy knoll
#

needa track euphoria den

balmy condor
#

if we were hard capped at the max

#

with 126% haste and mastery for maximum poison damage

gloomy knoll
#

i doubt we see exsang without borrowed power forcing it

balmy condor
#

and exsang was a 30 second cooldown

It was a really fun build back in BFA

it still wouldn't be close to alacrity

like you can lower the cooldown, you can make it faster

#

and it just doesn't help

gloomy knoll
#

yea just needs dam lol

balmy condor
#

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

gloomy knoll
#

well even in bfa people forget it wasn't just

#

big haste

lol damn

it was ss juicing the absolute fuck

it was mostly shrouded

need big dam dot

balmy condor

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

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)

strange python

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

use obedience :/ db so fucking boring

Icy Veins mentions to start with Mutilate from stealth if you're using Master Assassin, but that should be Ambush right? monkahmm More dmg for equal amount of energy cost and CP gain.

balmy condor
#

!mut

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.

ancient rain
#

hey guys, what combat potion should we use?

digital zodiac
#

rogue discord is 10000% better than the other classes i have been in

balmy condor
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

Hey, hows obedience looking post nerf? Is it still better than doomblade?

tribal shuttle
#

So I guess we assa rogues need to craft doomblade on back again

stiff thicket
jagged osprey
#

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 ^^

obsidian ridge
#

Doomblade is like 0.1% better on pure st, obedience should be better with more targets i'll make obedience r6 first

stiff thicket
#

0,34% according to sims

obsidian ridge
#

Also I wish to enjoy flagellation cdr goodness

rigid tartan
gloomy knoll
#

obedience is not better

#

on cleave

#

only on aoe

jagged osprey
rigid tartan
#

It’s within 10 dps for me what

dry void
#

obedience is also harder to use than doomblade

#

so unless you play textbook perfect you might as well keep doomblade

strange python
#

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 👀

teal bloom

dungeonslice for M+

limpid plinth
#

Yep dslice for m+ 1 target for raid

opaque tree
#

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

jagged osprey
#

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.

woahh did not expect that much ash :x

#

okay ty, lol

limpid plinth
modest jasper
hollow talon
#

do we go obedience

#

or doomblade

#

is the obedience nerf live on raidbots?

stiff thicket
#

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

brave peak
#

But according to Bloodmallet Dashing Scoundrel should be a contender also, no?

opaque tree
#

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.

stiff thicket
#

That's why there are sims

strange python
#

obedience is probably the better overall choice

#

for the exact same reasons that people suggested going finality over akaari for sub originally

idle star
#

Im puting crit/haste on my obidience regardless of sub/sin. Juuust in case

strange python

I think I might too

tbh I kind of expect sin to be the play in mythic SoD

my sim has doomblade like 100 dps over obedience

odd hazel
#

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.

sick cairn
#

u think obedience is best on the nine?

#

also on eye?

#

heroic btw

rustic whale
#

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

fallen arch
#

Necro doomblade ftw

#

For the nine

strange python
#

I'll definitely be heading into mythic with obe

Putting 2,5k between you and the sub rogue feels hella good

are you talking about lazer thing?

shadow step always puts me in teh same place

i think hes talking about something else

You keep a lot more uptime then

i save cloak for oh shit moments

#

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

odd hazel
#

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+

echo geyser
#

I wonder if u can see how many stacks on average flag is getting when using obedience in sims

odd hazel
#

obedience wont change the stacks

#

on average most people get 20-23. the most people get seems to be about 28

strange python
#

so this is kinda awkward

teal geyser
#

when playing obedience u use flag on cd right?

odd hazel
#

you use flag on CD now

strange python
#

just simmed obedience and zoldycks and ma sims higher for me

#

lol

#

if possible

odd hazel
#

MfD What

strange python
#

am i not supposed to use mfd

#

it was simming higher for me LMAO

timid talon
#

nothing is wrong, you just have like 150 crit on your gear

#

so ma is gonna sim higher

strange python
#

yeah but wouldnt that reduce the value of ma

odd hazel
#

MfD is just aids to use lol

#

no

#

we LOVE crit

#

and you not having any makes it better

#

i think i have a pretty decent amount no?

#

how much crit are ppl averaging lmao

odd hazel
#

i have 35% crit

azure flare
#

i have like, unironically 34% crit

strange python
#

its prob cus i transitioned from outlaw

#

so my gear is more geared towards outlaw

rustic whale
#

guys anyone able to send a link here to see current rogues using which covenant already?

odd hazel
#

people are playing venthyr and necro

#

pick one of the two or any of the 4

#

¯_(ツ)_/¯

rustic whale
#

yeah i know but i wanna see the percents

crystal vault
#

Looking at sims, do we still go for obedience, since it’s close but more versatile?

odd hazel
#

i mean

#

why

strange python
#

but once i have better pieces for assass i obedience should be simming higher now right?

odd hazel
#

just check logs then if you want

azure flare
#

u can check warcraftlogs i suppose

odd hazel
#

since the nerf, doom is better at ST/2t/3t and obedience is better at M+

#

if you're venthyr

azure flare
#

he's doing dung slice

#

sim

strange python
#

well ya this is specifically for m+

odd hazel
#

oh then yes

azure flare
#

yea in m+ it will get better

#

in st its on par/slightly worse than doom

#

u wont notice the diff on st tbh

strange python
#

bc im wracking my skinny little brain trying to figure out whether i should make zoldyck or obedience

#

i guess im gonna make obedience

azure flare
#

how did u uh

#

manually input the legendary

odd hazel
#

gear compare --- type the name of the leggo with out the power

#

and it lets you choose

azure flare
#

aaahh

#

pog ty

strange python
#

i used top gear

odd hazel
#

that works too

#

its in your bags then i assume

strange python
#

nah

echo geyser
#

No top gear u can add legos

strange python
#

^

odd hazel
#

Ah, well both work then

echo geyser
#

Its the easier way to sim legos u dont have

azure flare
#

ah ye I see

#

thats pretty neat

odd hazel
#

wait

#

so do dominaton sockets work in M+

strange python
#

kinda

#

the effects of the singular shards work but the set bonuses do not

odd hazel
#

Cool. ~

strange python
#

also is it just me or is doing torghast solo as sin really hard

#

am i missing something

odd hazel
#

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

azure flare

yo let me in on those busted builds 👀

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

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:

odd hazel
#

make sure to acommadate for the peice you replaced.

strange python
#

man

#

fuck this im not stressing over torghast for 138 soul ash

odd hazel
#

im nots ure why people struggle with sin torghast wise.

#

but i will say if you're geared as outlaw, do it as outlaw.

azure flare
#

im pretty sure i did

odd hazel
#

i had to put a domination gem in one of my spots to have it sim higher for me

azure flare
#

huh weird

odd hazel
#

it'll prob be simming higher when we have more gear

strange python
#

if im gonna run 20 torghasts in a row again i would prefer to not have to change to outlaw

azure flare
#

yeah probs only does rlly well with more gear I suppose

strange python
#

but i guess if i have to

odd hazel
#

i mean

#

you dont have to

strange python
#

no

#

i have to

odd hazel
#

¯_(ツ)_/¯

#

you do you

i mean

just make a torghast group

its pretty easy then
