okay

odd hazel
#

You vendetta before rupture and flag before rupture if chosen

#

Tbh there’s so much cleave it feels like in cucking my self not going necro

#

I don’t have the SF conduit though

#

But venth feels so good

stone gate
#

Which pvp talents shoud I take btw?

spice spire
#

That’s a #pvp question

#

PvE Andys here :^)

stone gate
#

aight ty xd

buoyant schooner
#

for M+ ?

odd hazel
limber lion
loud mason
#

Hey folks, i see that there are no "perfect" stats weapon for rogues, does this mean i just uppgrade the highest itlvl weapon i obtain with crit or haste on it ?

violet hemlock
#

perfect stats are on sly weap

loud mason
#

thinking m+ here not sylv daggers 😛

violet hemlock
#

This tier im not gonna upg daggers and focus on upging rings neck and trinkets

#

might be folly but eh

#

But last tier I just upgraded whatever dagger I got first

vapid nimbus
#

What are our best M+ Anima powers so far?

sharp panther
#

outlaw has a pin for anima powers i assume it’s pretty much the same for the other 2 specs

manic quartz
#

!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

strange python
#

but if Subterfuge talented you use Garrote as opener or still sbs?

odd hazel
#

X4 garrote/SnD/then SBS dot on everyone I assume and apply ruptures

sleek trail
#

Just a random question

If rogues shadowstep the spike balls for painsmith will the spike ball hit?

spice spire
#

yes

sleek trail
#

Oofff

manic quartz
#

Mut>SnD>Mut>Garr>Rupture>Vendetta>Flagellation>Shiv>Vanish>Mut>envenom sound right?

#

or Flag before rupture?

spice spire
#

flag before rupture

odd hazel
#

Door of shadows through it :^)

fallen arch
#

You’ll get urself killed

fallen arch
#

I thought it better to take the stats upgrade there

odd hazel
#

I prefer taking plumage/stats/shield/and heal when taking damage

#

But if we get the bonus damage for interrupting with plumage that might be something

sharp panther
#

yeah i usually take the stats over battle axe and then necrotic... which usually does about 15-20% of my boss dmg

fallen arch
#

I always take necrotic

sharp panther
#

and i have the other two dps take volcanic

fallen arch
#

Yeah it’s nutty on bosses

odd hazel
#

Why necrotic ?

fallen arch
#

Because of the dam

sharp panther
#

cos its does 15-20% on bosses

odd hazel
#

True true

gusty mirage
#

never have 3 dps take volcanic

fallen arch
#

Inspiring kinda negates the effect of volcanic as well this week for some packs

gusty mirage
#

it can evade bug mobs if it procs a lot

#

and they reset lol

#

"well polished"

odd hazel
#

I might just start taking necrotic then

gusty mirage
#

necrotic dagger is yuge

odd hazel
#

Since I’m assuming everyone takes plumage any way

#

On pug groups

gusty mirage
#

I'm kinda torn between champion's boon & the axe one though

#

having 40% crit is super nice

odd hazel
#

Can you throw multiple axes ? In a pack ?

gusty mirage
#

yeah

#

it can proc on multiple mobs

sharp panther
#

yeah ive tried both but still not sure which is actually better

gusty mirage
#

we had a bug in mists where someone got knocked into one of the doorways and it reset us to the start while in combat

#

and I just saw a buncha axes flying through the walls

#

lmao

#

the range on it is ridiculous

fallen arch
#

Haha

#

Fair

strange silo
#

Hey for eye and the nine mythic would it be better to play ep+vig even if it is a 150 dps loss vs bs+ds? almost all logs are with ep+vig

fallen arch
#

Tell them buckling rampage hurts

odd hazel
#

I feel as if the axes would just make trash packs stupid easy

fallen arch
#

Dont get hit by that

gusty mirage
#

potatoes gonna potato

fallen arch
#

Aye

limber lion
#

to patchwork

#

Try simming yourself in Cleave Add instead of Patchwork

strange silo
#

alright will do

fallen arch
#

But it’s safe to play ep vigor anyway

#

I have it as default

#

Dont care that bs/ds sims 20 dps higher

strange silo
#

i mean i have way too low haste so it will help quite a bit but as i said sims tell me its around 130 dps loss if i take it

odd hazel
#

There’s no low haste

strange silo
#

in patchwork dunno how good the bs proc are in sims

odd hazel
#

Some people in here had 13% last tier

#

I’m sure some barely have 20 now

strange silo
#

i have 11,24% xd

atomic thicket
#

Which rogue spec is currently the most fun to play?

fallen arch
#

That’s completely subjective

odd hazel
#

That’s subjective

fallen arch
#

But if you ask here, most will prob say sin peepoguns

odd hazel
#

Tbh it depends on the play style you enjoy

#

carpel tunnel?

#

Outlaw

#

Slow poison and bleed ?

atomic thicket
#

OK my bad😅, which one is the easiest to do the rotation?

odd hazel
#

Sin

violet hemlock
fallen arch
atomic thicket
#

Enjoyed outlaw in bfa, swapped to sub in SL which was less fun but I was annoyed by target cap from outlaw

gusty mirage
#

Sin's the easiest simply because it's slower

#

less likely to mess something up

gusty mirage
#

sub's aoe is 8 though

#

so I get what he means

atomic thicket
#

Any good Videos I can watch to see rotations from sin?

fallen arch
#

FoK should be uncapped imo

gusty mirage
#

You're better off just checking out one of the guides & putting in some target dummy work than watching a video

fallen arch
#

Entire different discussion tho

gusty mirage
#

@fallen arch or not give you 1cp and making you sad

atomic thicket
#

Kk will do

#

Thx team

gusty mirage
#

!guide

fallen arch
gusty mirage
#

just check out one of those, the wowhead one is good. Mystler does a great job of keeping it up to date @atomic thicket

fallen arch
#

Even with 35% crit

atomic thicket
#

OK ty

gusty mirage
#

and you get 1cp 3 foks in a row

strange silo
#

Ok i did the add cleave sim and its just 48 dps loss vs bs+ds and i guess ep+vig feels smoother

fallen arch
#

I dont even bother running Katar anymore

gusty mirage
#

it's such a depressing conduit

gusty mirage
#

why doesn't the crit chance scale with ilvl

#

WHY BLIZZARD

vapid nimbus
#

Is there any way to SIM with M+ anima powers?

limber lion
#

No

balmy condor
#

A lot

odd hazel

Feel free to update it yourself if you got like a week with nothing to do and you’ve tested all the mechanics

#

What legendary are people boosting on tuesday

dull osprey
limber lion
graceful mirage
#

anima lure peepo

balmy condor
spare flame
#

Raid seems to be a mix of assa/sub for me

#

so thinking obedience

vagrant tapir
#

Anyone have a good list of WA's to have for 9.1?

limber lion
#

It's a good choice

balmy condor
spare flame
#

Obedience feels weird as assa for me

vagrant tapir
#

Dungeons, raids, pvp etc

dull osprey
#

also, I simmed myself last night and doomblade sims higher than obedience

graceful mirage
#

yeah obedience seems to be the best "flex" legendary to boost

limber lion
#

It does

dull osprey
#

also a good point...

limber lion
#

It's been simming higher since they nerfed Obe

dull osprey
#

lik +60

balmy condor
#

Fucking kek

dull osprey
#

I mean, yeah

graceful mirage
#

60 whole dps

dull osprey
#

its not really that much of adiff

balmy condor
#

Back to bed with me it’s too early

wild birch
#

How much dps increase is unholy dom shards bonus?

odd hazel
#

I saw someone say like 900+ dps

wild birch
#

holy shit

graceful mirage
#

yeah shard bonuses are big

wild birch
#

I have 3 sockets, but 2 unholy shards

#

unforch

odd hazel
#

Finally got a unholy shard but it’s SPEEEEDDDD

graceful mirage
#

i have no unholy shard and just 2 sockets

#

(then again my group is still forming, so we havent got past normal)

wild birch
#

My first shard was actually Dyz(unholy dmg one) insta upgrade to level 5

graceful mirage
#

Dyz nuts

odd hazel
#

I got the execute blood and damage frost one first

graceful mirage
#

sorry im contractually obligated to do that

#

i have 2 blood ones so far

#

i have the hp boosting one and the one that gives you damage if your hp% is higher

#

or something like that

uneven hamlet
#

I have a set of frost equipped, only have 1 unholy

#

Soon bois soon

limber lion
#

It's okay boys

#

Next week for sure.

I'm getting a 252 phial from Vault as well

#

I am still using 223 daggers :(

odd hazel
#

Let’s all gang up on cev

graceful mirage
#

my best daggers were 220s

limber lion
#

But to be fair, I never got a single 233 dagger in 9.0.5

graceful mirage
#

gib me

limber lion
#

I got a 226 off hand like 4 weeks before 9.1

odd hazel
#

Jesus Christ cev

graceful mirage
#

i did get an early 240ish dagger this season

#

so im not as copium as last patch

#

but im 100% sure this is the best im getting for the rest of the patch

limber lion
#

I'm not sure if you know how to use that meme.

#

:p

steel geyser
#

waiting to kill nerzul before upgrading dagger to 246

#

But I would be very lucky to loot the raid dagger after getting the axe from the nine

limber lion
#

50/50

#

You either do or you don't.

steel geyser
#

We did splits between the two so I guess it reset loot counter Pepega

placid pagoda
#

Is it worth socketinf that speed unholy shard??? Or do we get any other unholy

#

Or is that part of the 3 set?

odd hazel
#

Yes

#

You need 3 unholy gems

graceful mirage
#

any 3 unholy gems will do. getting the bonus is worth more than the gems by themselves.

odd hazel
#

You can only get one of each

#

There’s only 3

placid pagoda
#

Okay thanks guys will socket my speed one

#

Does it matter where you socket it or can it go in any Dom slot?

odd hazel
#

Any dom socket

placid pagoda
#

Okay great thanks

odd hazel
#

Not sure on the helm though, it might have to be one

civic trellis
#

Has anyone tried theotar? Not sure how the mastery thingy works and if it has any downsides (like downtime)

odd hazel
#

He is really good on M+

#

And sub likes triple potency as well

civic trellis
#

I am using sub for pure ST with no downtime and sin otherwise 😛

#

Raid mainly

#

I am using nadija for sub and can't decide between draven and theotar for sin, cleave scenarios and high mobility encounters

#

Theotar sims higher but idk how bad is to lose the mastery buff

odd hazel
#

It’s pretty easy not to lose

civic trellis
#

Also didnt know maim, mangle was simming way higher than WPS 😄

odd hazel
#

Depends, might wanna sim it

civic trellis
#

Yeah i did, its just... unexpected. Main, mangle 226 sims higher than my 239 WPS

odd hazel
#

interesting

#

Might have to check my two conduits both are 226 though

gusty mirage
#

it was like a 20 dps difference for me

cobalt flame
#

for me 239 wps is better

gusty mirage
#

239 wps vs 226 maim

rocky pecan
#

It change depend on your stat

civic trellis
#

Oh i meant in 2t cleave

#

In st sims the same

safe patrol
#

the allround alternative to deeper and blindside, were vigor and ep yeah? not ep and bs

safe patrol
#

raid

odd hazel
#

Yes

safe patrol
#

cheers

rocky pecan
#

You mixed shadow core oil +20ap is better for you lievet?

civic trellis
#

No it shouldnt

#

its what i use as sub

#

i was lazy to change it, just that

rocky pecan
#

Okok

cobalt flame
placid pagoda
#

My dom gear is 239 it’s still worth socketinf and using chisel to remove it if I get higher ilvl gear?

drifting cloud
cobalt flame
#

Well except the one time stygia payment, the removing doesnt cost anything

#

so why not

ebon notch
#

main, mangle is simming higher than well placed steel for me

#

any idea why?

small island
#

are u using doomblade?

ebon notch
#

yes

small island
#

makes doomblade do more dmg i guess

ebon notch
#

how does mutilate doing more damage

#

increase the damage of doomblade

small island
#

isnt doomblade 45% of mutilate?

#

so higher muti = higher bleed?

#

maybe im wrong 🙂

ebon notch
#

oh does the conduit increase the bleed damage

small island
#

i think so

ebon notch
#

from mutilate when using

#

ahhh

cold rampart
#

vendetta then rupture or rupture then vendetta

odd hazel
#

Vendetta - flag - rupture

#

If not venth just remove flag

cold rampart
#

mut mut shiv vanish env?

thorny pond
#

!guide

odd hazel
#

Opener should be
Mut - snd - mut - garrote - vendetta - flag - rupture - shiv/vanish - mut - evenom - mut - mut - evenom

#

If you don’t play deeper you prob only need one mut at the end if you get a crit

cold rampart
#

mine is
mut snd mut rup garrote vend flag mut shiv then vanish eveneom

odd hazel
#

No rupture ?

thorny pond
#

Where is rupture

graceful mirage
#

don't you Vanish for Envenom and not Mut?

cold rampart
#

it seems we vanish for mut

thorny pond
graceful mirage
#

well it depends if you have the master assasin talent

thorny pond
#

No

rocky ruin
#

For M+ which leggy do we use

thorny pond
#

2 muts and 1 env are the same in that window

odd hazel
#

Obedience if your venth zold if necro

rocky ruin
#

i found Obedience kinda not so good

odd hazel
#

It’s only good in M+ really

graceful mirage
#

isn't it also good for AoE heavy fights?

thorny pond
#

Yea

odd hazel
#

Most likely ye

thorny pond
#

Less envenom and mutilates will devalue doomblade

graceful mirage
#

but yeah, Obedience is the way to go for everything not single target

odd hazel
#

More and more it’s showing up in raids so it’ll be interesting to see in a month

thorny pond
#

Most encounters have something secondary to hit

odd hazel
#

I don’t think besides guardian there’s a pure ST

thorny pond
#

So that lends itself to other finishers and more energy regen and cp spending increasing flags value

graceful mirage
#

plus i like pressing flag more often

odd hazel
#

It’s so nice having flag up so often in M+

thorny pond
#

Yea prio dps is a big thing this raid

#

Why sub is seeing value

odd hazel
#

I’m glad people can play sub who Enjoy it

thorny pond
#

I also Emily sub

cold rampart
odd hazel
#

My phone is stupid lmao

odd hazel
thorny pond
#

I’m telling Sarah you Emily

odd hazel
#

What about Amy

graceful mirage
#

what ABOUT amy

thorny pond
#

Amy is a hoor

odd hazel
thorny pond
#

You’ll see more and more variance based on what people enjoy and encounters

#

A lot of sin rogues will probably fotm to sub and realize it’s not as forgiving as sin and go back to sin but have a max level obedience already

#

So they’ll just play that

graceful mirage
#

i mean, what ISN'T more forgiving than sin

thorny pond
#

Outlul

#

Sin can be a bitch if you fall behind on bleeds but it is relatively straightforward yea

graceful mirage
#

its not like its an apm intensive spec to begin with

#

which is something i kinda enjoy

#

i like having the brainspace for mechanics

thorny pond
#

No, but that means every gcd has value

graceful mirage
#

but anyways, as long as i can avoid outlaw, im gucci

thorny pond
#

If you scuff a flag window as sub you have some wiggle room to get the stacks back, as sin if you scuff it enjoy your 19 stack

odd hazel
#

I’ll prob star playing sub when it’s farm

thorny pond
#

Prog sub bud

odd hazel
#

Fuck that

ebon notch
#

is the secret technique trinket recognised properly in the apl?

soft shale
#

yea there's a slot on top gear for it to choose stat now

final sky
#

in raid when do i want to be using my phantom fire?

grim lion
#

Guys, what is the usual opener in the raid for assa?

#

Without lashing scars, as I'm necro

#

Flagellation I mean.

soft shale
#

sbs snd mut garrote rupture shiv vendetta vanish mut envenom mut

ebon notch
#

is there a pin about phantom fire vs agil?

thin gate
#

guys where do i find the notes for BIS Tarague powers?

soft shale
#

!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

ebon notch
#

sik

grim lion
odd hazel
#

!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.

soft shale
#

yea you begin with bonespike

ebon notch
#

bone spike then snd

grim lion
#

Huh, interesting ,alright alright

ebon notch
#

then mut garrote ruptuire

#

then mut once or twice

final sky
#

i never understood pastebin, what do i do with it

ebon notch
#

vanish

#

envenom

thin gate
#

i thought Vanish = Mut>Envenom

ebon notch
#

i prefer to have

#

5cp

#

before vanish envenoming

thin gate
#

didnt someone said that a few days ago because the CP regen is better than the envenom crit?

ebon notch
#

but in general its not a huge diff

grim lion
#

Thanks man

lyric dock
grim lion
#

Also, should I ever use envenom on 4 cp

#

Or always wait 5?

ebon notch
#

you can use on 4 if you're playing vigor

grim lion
#

kk

ebon notch
#

never use combo generator on n-1

#

with n being your max CP

balmy condor

@balmy condor no rush. Ty on advance

final sky
#

do i want to use my phantom fire with vendetta?

thin gate
#

vendeta only affets auto attacks and rogue spells

final sky
#

oh ok

#

so should i just be using it on cooldown?

#

(phantom fire)

plain spruce
#

do I CT instead of Envenom at 3 targets, regardless of CT dot?

robust aurora
#

what missives should i put on my lego?

ebon tundra
#

What lego? If obed and only playing assa then crit Haste, if you playing sub as well then crit vers, idk what you'd pick If you playing outlaw aswell cause fuck that spec

robust aurora
#

just assa with zold

ebon tundra
#

Crit Haste then

robust aurora
#

ok thanks

What boss does that drop on again ?

Uhh. Guardian i think

odd hazel

I should sim it and see if it beats any of my trinkets

anyone know how to get plater to stop showing other rogue's vendetta?

odd hazel

#

@limber lion blobsweat

rare scaffold
#

can I play sin as necro? is there a lot dps loss ?

odd hazel
#

Nope you can safely play necro

#

It’s not ahead in sT but wins in cleave/AoE ( obedience venth seems to do better by a small margin in dungeon slice )

graceful mirage
#

check the pins for the theoretical differences

limber lion
limber lion
#

it's bad if you wanna play Sub as well

graceful mirage
#

its good, but why when the gothbois are based

odd hazel
#

^

shut flame
#

Kui nameplates, i found it better than plater. + Modified luxthos wa rogue set

so necro bad for sub

I was looking on what to play off spec sin or sub

Just came back to retail after playing 9.0 a little bit, trying to get caught up to 9.1 - Switched covenant to Venthyr from Nightfae so I'm renown 7 atm, but had that campaign completed for nightfae and I think all of 9.0 too - Whats the most important thing to do?

#

Im ilvl 202 atm

inland jacinth
#

hi guys what does it mean to have 'nadjia triple potency obedience' mean ? vs nadjia dauntless obedience ?

vagrant tapir
#

dauntless duelist is a soulbind that prevents you from getting a 3rd potency slot with nadjia

compact oyster
#

I imagine There’s a path on nad which utilizes three potency conduits.

vagrant tapir
#

So you would have the option of either getting dauntless duelist, or 3 potency slots, but not both.

compact oyster
#

@vagrant tapir complete campaign for unlocking soulbinds, torghast for soul ash and cinders, anything else for renown catch-up.

thin gate
compact oyster
craggy ruin
#

so what would play in raid as Assa, Obidience or Doomblade?

thin gate
#

its -0.03% Dps for Obidience in Pure ST

#

so pretty much up to u i guess

#

Doomblade loses as soon as u cant keep up the bleeding on more than 1 target by mutilating

muted ridge
#

is that correct?

inland jacinth
#

@compact oyster "but i don't understand what "triple potency" means?

vagrant tapir
#

Were those professions journals ever implemented? And is there any real advantage to professions outside gold making?

3 potency slots

oh thank u

okay thanks

woeful orbit
#

If you shadowstep to eye of jailor do you end up in the middle of the platform (on the ledge)? Trying to figure out how infectous is shadowstepping through the beam without changing targets and seemingly nothing to jump to

lyric dock
#

Puts you on platform a bit left of center

woeful orbit
#

Excellent. No matter where you jump from?

lyric dock
#

Yes

woeful orbit
#

You’re the man. Thanks

lyric dock
#

If beam is going right to left then be careful. I got shredded last reclear... so now I step if it's going left to right and cloak if vice versa

woeful orbit
#

Totally makes sense

#

Good call out. Any other tips and tricks like that one (for other bosses) to help keep up uptime on fights? Or have a good resource for me to look at that sort of aggregates them all in one place?

do i lose much dps staying necro/doomblade?

graceful mirage
#

dps ranks in pins

#

short answer:no

bleak sedge
#

in sims flag is better but there is so much movement in this raid that they are pretty even

hardy prairie
#

why are subs so much better at Fatescribe? is it just the phasing lining with cds better?

bleak sedge

#

CT on fatescribe worth taking ?

hardy prairie
#

ahh i see

#

for the ad cleave?

I personally use ct on fate

yo how strong is silvanas dager?

limber lion

Pretty strong.

#

You can sim it.

#

It's not super giga for assa, but it's huge for Sub

quaint sequoia
#

gives limit an unfair advantage if its 45% on sylv

#

echo have been better this tier

  1. You didn't use a potion.
balmy condor
limber lion
#

Yep.

#
  1. Don't use your Blindside proc (Ambush) if you're at max-1 combo points. Always aim to use it at low combo points, so you don't waste em. When you get a proc, you just use it instead of your next Mutilate.
#

I like how my 233 Sack did more than 5% of my overall dps on Remnant, but my 242 Totem only did 2.81%

wide ridge
#

sack is crazy

#

sucks that mastery is such a shit secondary for us

#

for st, anyway

It sims less for me; is there a way that makes it proc more in a fight ?

No phial yet

I offered 3 wow tokens to a warrior for it who said no

i got a phial twice now in like 6 runs

traded one to my RL DH tank

limber lion
#

ok dude.

When u get phial in ur 1st but never seen ooze after

#

Wasted all my luck

mild dagger
#

I’ve done at least 10 runs for phial no luck

mental trout
#

now i want pox and ooze

#

is ooze better then phial?

limber lion
#

No.

#

Ooze is bad.

strange python
#

236 ooze is DPS downgrade over 226 guardian trink and 233 taza trink for me.

mental trout
limber lion
#

?

#

Phial is literally the best trinket in the game.

#

Ooze is bad.

mental trout
#

oh ok lol just seen every one trying to get it, my fault.

lyric dock
mental trout
#

yea i want the H painsmith trinket

#

gonna kill him in a few hours hype

strange python
#

Ooze is good for warlocks

limber lion
#

Everyone's trying to get phial

#

not ooze.

limber lion
mental trout
#

i meant the guardian lmao

#

salvaged fusion amp

#

wouldnt mind the fist wep from painsmith fo sho

strange python
#

Guardian trink and phial likely to be bis for sub and sin, unless you can get a low CD on shadowgrasp

odd hazel
#

We don’t use fist weapons

mental trout
#

lol i play outlaw for M+

#

im necro =p

odd hazel
#

I doubt it’s good for them

ancient peak
#

why is shadowgrasp so much better for assa and sub than outlaw?

limber lion
#

It is good.

strange python
#

Taza trink will be bis next tier for sure

odd hazel
#

Nah

strange python
#

Wild how good it is even at 233

odd hazel
#

I mean it’s okay

strange python
#

????

mental trout
#

what taza trinket?

lyric dock
#

!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

Ticking sack of terror is insane lmao

limber lion

That's the wrong reply

limber lion
odd hazel
#

Mastery SmallBoyBigKnife

strange python
#

?? So?

#

226 taza sims on par with 239 phial

#

It's absurdly strong even with the mastery

mental trout
#

man my two target patch work for Sin sims like 900 more then my outlaw. I suck at 2+ targets with Sin =/

limber lion
#

2t is where it's at for sin.

odd hazel
#

Absurdly isn’t a good word for it tbh.

limber lion
#

That's the good stuff.

strange python
#

If a 226 trinket sims on par with a 239 version of our bis that's kind of exactly what "absurdly good" would be, no?

mental trout
#

like i on the nine, im only doing 300 more dps then the eye...

limber lion
#

The eye is not a 2t fight

mental trout
#

im doing some thing so wrong...

limber lion
#

The Nine also has 2t in it

#

You're not using really fair comparisons here lol.

mental trout
#

yea i know lol. im saying with another target im only doing 300 more dps.

limber lion
#

But nine is not a 2t fight either

#

They're both similar.

#

They both have multiple targets for some periods of the fight

mental trout
#

yea i guess

#

true

limber lion
#

The Nine is mostly st

#

And so is the Eye.

limber lion
#

I mean I sim like 50% more with a secondary target.

#

A second target is nuts for sin.

iron heath
#

FeelcraftyToxic Toxic

strange python
#

The nine is more 2t on mythic but still more ST

mental trout
#

so what fights do you guys consider true cleave?

#

fate? KT?

strange python
#

Not fate. Kt is more AoE than 2t

#

Not really any true 2t fights this tier

#

The nine and eye probably closest

limber lion
#

Yeh, there isn't really a 2t cleave fight.

#

Huntsman is a good 2t fight. :)

strange python
#

Maybe I'm just salty I'm always doing rings on fate tho

mental trout
#

just trying to make a list of what fights i should just roll with outlaw over sin

strange python
#

None

limber lion
#

None of them

strange python
#

Outlaw bad

kind talon
#

Fate is a cleave fight

#

Constant adds

strange python
#

Outlaw is a pad spec that brings nothing to the table that isn't done better by a monk or DK (or sin)

kind talon
#

Soulrender is half and half

kind talon
#

It’s just how the spec works

strange python
#

¿

#

Username relevant?

kind talon
#

Never mind

limber lion
strange python
#

Sin rips energy into primary target so much more effectively

#

Let alone affliction

balmy condor
#

oh boy are we feelcrafting damage profiles again

limber lion
#

Just because you do a single target rotation as Outlaw in aoe

#

doesn't mean it's the best single target spec in aoe.

gloomy knoll
#

hey @balmy condor how does sin apl use shadowgrasp

gloomy knoll
#

ty 🙂

strange python
#

Tab targeting a rupture and garrote stops all your prio damage though, Cev!

#

Even though it gives full EP/envenom uptime

balmy condor
limber lion
#

and for lust

gloomy knoll
#

so you're saying hold every flag for vendetta

limber lion
#

if that's something that you hold

balmy condor
#

considering it's an optimization specifically for venth, and shadowgrasp in particular

limber lion
#

surely

gloomy knoll
#

and drop totem with it

limber lion
gloomy knoll
gloomy fern

i can only be arsed to sync my first totem

Just get fae guardians so vend is up 10 seconds after flag is up

how the fuck do these people

I got rank 8 or something when we killed it and I don't have sockets or phial

Idk how much it's dropped since

what was your kill time

strange python

7:50 and 7400.

ebon notch
#

ah oki

#

ours is

#

40 seconds longer lmao

#

and i got 7.3k

strange python
#

Im assuming any DPS over 8k has had omega gear or their 3set

#

Lol there's only one rogue at 9k, he has 239 phial, 239 fusion amp, unholy 3set, and zero downtime on eye (they have their overlap down)

visual stratus
#

I get that Outlaw is a pretty bad spec this tier for raiding. Why is it that the top end guilds in RWF mostly have brought Sub Rogues as opposed to Assa Rogues? They're both really good ST specs, but it seems that Assa is performing better looking at data on Warcraftlogs.

silent fossil
#

sub funnels boss dmg

pale fossil
#

Assa is more forgiving, so playing in PUGs and decent guilds mean that it's going to look better, but Sub does better ST damage with the right execution.

silent fossil
#

and for say guardian it just edges more dps for the tight enrage

strange python
bleak sedge
#

also sub has better burst than assa does

silent fossil
#

yes? and the bosses that are pure st or have multiple adds to funnel the rwf guilds with rogues played them as sub. the easier / 1-3 add target bosses were played as assass.

bleak sedge
#

asssa has good sustain dmg and super unrealiable burst

#

vs adds that have to die dast sub is way better because sub with SoD and SD has burst+

visual stratus
#

Makes sense. Traditionally having a very bursty profile has been valuable in high end mythic raiding environments

#

Looking at data from Heroic, Sub has started outperforming Assa (on less parses mind you). Interesting.

#

Rogue feels so good right now. The buffs really hit great.

odd hazel
#

We got no buffs besides sub

#

?

visual stratus
#

Assasination got buffed a bunch in patch 9.0.5

#

Remember when they were in the gutter?

odd hazel
#

That’s 9.0.5

#

Not now

visual stratus
#

Yea

#

And those buffs contributed to Rogue feeling really good right now

teal bloom
#

Was wondering why mastery haste necklace was outsimming my crit vers neck by like 50 dps in dungeonslice even though the ilevel is the same and crit is good in aoe. Did stat weight sim and for some reason haste is atm the best stat by far even though my haste is like 19% so not very low 🤔

odd hazel
#

Mastery is better for dslicee

#

I think most run a ton of crit /mastery

teal bloom
#

I mean crit is generally the most valuable stat in dungeons but sim doesn't like my necklace that has a lot of crit. It values haste more in dungeonslice than in single target for me right now which I think is weird

stone gate
#

is nadja the best soulbind for assassin?

limber lion
odd hazel
#

Nadja is good for pure ST/etc but theotar seems to be the move with M+

#

Down with the kyrian

ocean light
#

Do you not want Haste on Obedience?

limber lion
#

Sure if you only play Assassination

#

But if you wanna multispec, crit/vers is the better choice

ocean light

ah okay, thank you. Crit/Haste if it's my assassination only legendary then?

if I am just coming back and am 220 ilvl should I get doomblade for the flexibility or just go for obedience?

azure bronze
limpid bison
gentle gyro
#

obedience gives you more options

swift moss
#

alr will go for obedience then I had thought doomblade was more flexible guess its otherway around xD

echo cargo
#

obedience is pog on fights like KT where flag lines up w/ the phylactery

#

vers also good if ur healers are pepega

gentle gyro
#

doomblade is a tiny bit ahead for pure st according to pins

swift moss
#

alr have 235 finality and 235 celerity so obedience would just be for sin tbh

gentle gyro
#

but negligible

It's very weird that the ST patchwerk sims on Simcraft website use obedience for assa

ah okay

thought they were updated weekly or something

balmy condor

it just resims the profile that's submitted

there's "sample" characters I guess you can call them

#

the timestamp just shows when it gets simmed

#

but those sample characters don't change really

pure bloom
#

@balmy condor is our guy for the theorycraft 😛

balmy condor
#

I'm also the one that submitted that profile

#

so technically it's my fault that it's simming obedience

azure bronze

I see that makes a lot more sense Thonk

balmy condor

I might submit a new profile though cause fusion amp got buffed

need to double check some stuff

it wasn't implemented properly

hey mate

#

will you share updates on the sims pinned here?

#

last weeks changes

balmy condor
#

yeah I'll update pins eventually

#

it's just that fusion amplifier was undersimming, especially for sin

#

and that got fixed

#

the other thing not reflected is the set bonuses having ranks

so just needs a resim

aha ok thanks

probably will do it later tonight or tomorrow

Is EP only worth taking if you can constantly keep the buff up? @balmy condor

it's a gear thing from what I know

why pins been saying it's not this whole time lol

??????????

what the fk u mean

soft shale

blood set is decent at 2 but how far are you from shadow set

#

as long as you can get all the shadow ones at 3 next week you're fine

as rank 4 will take 2 weeks on all shadow gems

#

shadow set lvl 3 takes 60 embers total

#

just do the substraction with what you can spend

graceful mirage
#

i have uh

#

0 shadow or unholy gems

soft shale

yea but im telling you to save 60 to insta upgrade them when you get them

#

there are 9 in total if you clean at least normal every week

graceful mirage

im not planning on upgrading anything don't worry

you will have them eventually

im talking bout the set bonus

the teams that do that for normal are idiots

even for heroic

just making excuses for them selfs

doing it to "recruit" cause our prog is behind

we are only on Fate instead of sylvanas

so 10 man roster til sylvanas

cause apparently the adds fall over with 10 people

behind compared to who?

we went from top 50 on the server to 107

they told us to just pug fate and KT

raid leader did it so we should be able to

unless they're actively going for world/realm firsts is kinda stupid

you mean do more progress then them as a team?

Who cares that just means you died. Your numbers on every other boss are great.

No one is going to discard your app because you died on your first kill of a new boss.

#

Hmmmmm - so many rogues using phantom fire

#

idk why agility sims better for me ever since the addon started

halcyon zealot
#

think agi/stones are just a more consistent safe choice, oils/phantom is kind of a dice roll with rng, but nice if you get lucky, i also think they changed phantom fire this patch iirc? haven’t looked into it much cuz i’m a stone/agi pot guy

fallow estuary
#

Even with phantom stones are stronger

#

according to sim

balmy condor
#

it's just rng high rolls

#

phantom fire can rng, agi is consistent

halcyon zealot
#

didnt they change the proc or something on phantom whispyr or am i completely making that up?

untold nest
#

they made it do less dmg and proc more but still more rng than agi pot

#

agi will get u for example every time 200 dps, PF can get u 150, can get u 250

soft shale
#

pf can highroll really high

#

it can proc a lot and ALSO crit

#

agility is way more smooth

#

for assa i like agi pots a lot better i still use oil because i have like 30000 of them tho

you dont spam CT, its just a "keep it up" dot

Yeah, I didn't know if the intital hit on use would be more beneficial than the dot. Considering the adds only last a few seconds. Thank you though.
